The Best New Sandwich in DC

Posted by Jessica on Dec. 8, 2008

Having grown up in New Jersey among a plethora of Italian delis, my life in DC has been largely characterized by my search for a great Italian sandwich that is not served by the surly staff of Vace in Cleveland Park. I am happy to report that a new contender has emerged in DC. Even better, and most unlikely, it is made at the new Broad Branch Market in my neighborhood of Chevy Chase DC, home of a population that mostly thinks that turkey breast and mayo constitute a sandwich.

The newcomer is the Industrial, a classic combo of Boar’s Head capicola, salami and mortadella served with a little bit of thinly-sliced red onion and oil and vinegar on the best Italian sub roll I have had in years.

This little market that could is full of surprises and worthy of a visit.

  • It makes our Saturdays a lively hub for families and friends, delicious produce and breads, and regular cheese tastings at the Market.

    Best thing to happen in our community since we got the Farmer's Market at Lafayette School on Saturday mornings. It makes our Saturdays a lively hub for families and friends, delicious produce and breads, and regular cheese tastings at the Market.
