Salt beef on rye
Friday, May 16, 2008
To wrap up this week of great sandwiches here at Huddle, our CTO Jonathan has suggested we mention the classic salt beef on rye. Whilst I personally like my salt beef (or corned beef if you come from the US) smothered in butter in a fresh poppy-seeded bagel, Jonathan loves going to the Selfridges food hall and ordering the following:
Two slices of rye bread, heaps and heaps of hot salt beef (preferrably freshly carved rather than microwaved!) a layer of American mustard and gherkins on the side.
To be honest, this is a difficult sandwich to beat – nothing satisfies quite like it and although it’s somewhat of an acquired taste it’s incredibly addictive!

You should have seen the size of Hot Pastrami Sandwich we have ordered today at Carnegie’s Deli (not in New York, but Treasure Island, Las Vegas). One could have fed a whole army.

The 24 hour beigel place on Brick Lane does the best salt beef sandwich i’ve ever tasted and it is incredibly cheap. They also sell slabs of delicious cheesecake. Yum.

Selfridges, pah! I’m sorry, Gabby’s on Charing Cross Road rules the salt beef world.
