Couldn't get this sandwich off my mind for nothin' yesterday. I'm picking up the ingredients tonight and will be counting down the hours to brunch Saturday morning. I have to eat it at brunch (breakfast and lunch) for two reasons:
- I get up on Saturday's around 10 a.m. so the meal has to last me half a day.
- This sandwich is too dayum rich and high in everything to count as one meal anyway.
If you've seen Spanglish, you know what I'm talking about. If you don't know about the Spanglish Sandwich, you better ask somebody.
Saturday Post-sandwich Update:
I had it today around 12:30 p.m. It was everything I thought it would be. I used romaine lettuce instead of butter lettuce, 'cause I will never in this lifetime pay $4 for fancy lettuce. On a somewhat related note, after I saw Spanglish the first time, I went straight to Crate and Barrel and bought a party-sized set of these beautiful stemless wineglasses like the one Adam Sandler filled with vodka in the "Conversation of Her Life" scene.















The sandwich looks good but Ima need that egg to be cooked more :)
Enjoy it!

That looks delicious, except I'll use turkey or beef bacon. Even though I don't like my eggs runny, it looks good!

I'm with y'all on that runny egg stuff. I don't think cooking it all the way will ruin the experience at all.

I saw that. I don't remember a sandwich. I'll have to check on that. I'm like Joey from Friends when it comes to Sandwiches. Huge fan.

The runny egg MAKES the sandwich. Even the chef makes this point in the "how to" clip on the DVD. I'm so glad you like this sandwich. While I was watching the movie, I was thinking about that sandwich from the minute it showed up until I discovered the "how to" clip. A dream come true! AND I can't believe you have those glasses. I've been waiting until I get more space to buy the Riedel version. I don't like you.

@Adriane- Whatever. You love me. :) And while the Crate & Barrel knock-offs were like $2 each, knowing you, the Riedel ones are probably more like $30 a pop.
