My whole being is filled with purpose, drive, and fortitude. My focus is a sandwich, nay a whole meal, who's composition is so complete that I need not even glance at a menu. No distraction can dissuade me from my goal. The goal being great food at a reasonable price. And I mean great. Is that so hard???? Wait, what did she say?
It's now lunch time and I'm hungry and I've been thinking about this sandwich for 2 weeks, honestly, non stop thoughts reveling in the remembrance of the tastes, smells, and feel of this guy.
Yes, it's really that good.
It's lunch, and I have a full day ahead so I'll be enjoying this meal with water. Don't judge.

Rabbit Hole, Jack-a-lope, shouldn't need explanation.
And here we go.

It's my favorite sandwich in the whole world. True.
French bread, house mac-n-cheese, slow roasted pastrami.
No words, just look
F - It! This meal needs a partner. Something refreshing and light, but with some flavor. This is the Cider by Stella Artois (I saw one of their commercials for this recently and I've been dying to try it). It's actually really good, at least to me. It's crisp and light, not an overpowering apple flavor, more of a hint or suggestion of said fruit. I think the pairing with this sandwich is magical, if I do say so myself.
OK, back to the sandwich.
Mac-N-Cheese-N-Pastrami
The mac-n-cheese is not at all firm/hard/stiff. It's deliciously gooey and runny. It's like a grilled cheese sandwich but with more structure to it. If I was blindfolded I don't think I could tell that this is mac instead of just cheese. Don't get me wrong, it's not mushy at all. It's kind of like the 2 x 4's in your wall. You know they are there holding the wall/roof up, but you can't see them. They're just there, and you need them to be.
And then the pastrami. The pastrami. It's peppery and meaty with very light notes of brine coming through each bite. And there's just enough gristle and fat on the outer edges to let you know that this is meat. It's not overstuffed though, this is not a Jewish Deli Pastrami on Rye. The portion is reasonable, and works for this sandwich.
And lastly the bread. It's the perfect bread choice. It's light and fluffy on the inside and the flat-top crisps up the outside to perfection. Just enough butter and the slightest hint of salt.
It's perfect, on all points except for one. The Wild Mushroom Demi Au Jus is strange (it's the saucer to the left of the ketchup). It's like a thick beef stock. I did try it and I'm not a fan, at least not with this sandwich. It doesn't need it. It ends up overpowering the cheesy, meaty goodness, taking all of the subtleties and balance away from the bread-cheese-meat and the light interplay of the salty buttery crust of the bread.
The fries are standardly awesome. They come with a house made ketchup that is kind of BBQ-esque in flavor. I like it, but regular ketchup works just fine too. They are a good break from the sandwich, if you need one...
MMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If that doesn't look good to you we can't be friends anymore. I'm breaking up with you.
Enjoying my favorite sandwich, at my favorite bar, with my some of my favorite people.
Life is good
