I’ve tried several of the sandwiches and found them unflavorful. Gourmet and different are great things but taste should always prevail.

Addy,
I second my husband’s comment–we thoroughly enjoyed our sandwiches…..

I couldn’t help but do a little ditty on my blog today about you!
best wishes!

OMG. I hadn’t made it to Addy’s Sandwiches food cart until a month ago, and now I’m kicking myself for having missed out all this time. After I ordered the ham/gruyere sandwich on baguette, I thought, “That’s kinda dumb. What a boring sandwich to order; how will I be able to tell if her sandwiches are really any good?” I took one bite, and OMG. Perfectly balanced yumminess on the most awesome baguette ever. YUM!

Since then, I have also tried the Country Paté. It’s good — I think the pate could be a little more flavorful, and, well, paté-like. I found it a bit more like meatloaf, which will make it easier to like for those scared of paté (but would they order it?). Have also tried a soup (a lentil) and a salad (yummy!).

I will be back… again!

My wife and I just tried Addy’s for the first time today and we thought it was simply delightful. Addy is warm and friendly, and the sandwiches were delicious. I had the country pate and my wife had the turkey with brie and cukes. We thought both were very flavorful, an excellent choice of bread, and very filling. Thanks Addy for making great sandwiches!

I just tried the Duck Confit sandwich today, having had other offerings since the cart opened last year. The duck is now paired with cranberry relish & cabbage instead of the apricot sauce previously noted. Not having had it with the aprioct sauce I can’t say whether this change is an improvement or not, but I definitely enjoyed it in the current incarnation. Good balance of flavors and the cabbage was a nice little touch. Look ma, I technically had veggies today!

One of these days I have got to try the chocolate with sea salt and olive oil combination but I haven’t yet felt that I can justify the cost. But maybe I’ll stop by Little T’s for a baguette and make my own concoction at home.

I love this cart. I think it’s only gotten better since I started coming here. And she changes it up… not too much, but enough to keep it interesting.

As for the baguette… that’s how it’s supposed to be!

The secret weapon at this cart is the soups and salads… A lot of carts treat soup and salad as an afterthought. Glad to say there’s no shortage of flavor here. I’ve had a great mushroom and kale soup, and I think a lentil soup of some kind. Both were seasoned really well.

I actually loved the bread – it was my favorite part, but I like a little chew to my bread, esp baguette-style. I appreciated how itt really held the sandwich together well (much better than soft bread), so that I was able to eat it while walking back to work with no spillage.

I had the turkey/brie/cucumber and my only complaint was the turkey seemed a little bland. Maybe I’m just used to buying more fancy turkey for my sandwiches at home (I usually get honey-roasted or peppered at the New Seasons deli).

I also noticed the day I was there, she has a batch of homemade sauerkraut started. She said no specific plans for it yet, but I love sauerkraut!

I had the duck confit, but I have to disagree with heather about the apricot sauce (maybe they’ve cut back?). I could definitely have gone for more apricot sauce to balance the sandwich better, it was mostly just duck. All in all it was a very good flavor combination though.
The baguettes, however, are too tough and chewy for me, I’m not a fan of sandwich bread that is so hard to bite through… it monopolized the sandwich with the toughness and the sheer amount of bread. The bread is probably going to be the deciding factor in not experimenting with other offerings at this cart, though it seems like it has a lot of potential. Bread is one of my favorite things to eat, but a large hunk of bread of this size and consistency isn’t what I want to make up the majority of my lunch.
