If our August Art of the Sandwich feature didn’t make your mouth water for some goodness between the bread, maybe a trip over to Nora’s Sandwiches, Soups & Salads in Dogtown will.
The restaurant’s Beat the Clock offer encourages diners to arrive at the cafe between 5 and 7 p.m. Once you order, the time you walked through the door becomes the price you’ll pay for any sandwich on the menu. (Arrive at 5:05, and you pay $5.05, arrive at 6:50 and pay $6.50.)
Their impressive list of sandwiches include the new Big Bad Wolf, which, as the fairy tale goes, contains three pigs. This meaty meal layers on the swine, complete with pork loin, ham and bacon, and topped with spicy pepper jack cheese and sweet honey mustard.
The For Pete’s Sake, meanwhile, is named after The Brady Bunch’s Peter Brady, who, you will recall, was a fan of the phrase “pork chops and applesauce.” The sandwich touts apple-smoked pork loin, caramelized onions, melted brie, bacon and, of course, applesauce. Sounds yummy – and clever, too.
