The Ultimate Chicago Sandwich
Take Note- If you are in the River North/Gold Coast area, head directly over to L' Appetito, 30 E. Huron, for my all time, somewhat traditional, yet very delicious sandwich - The Parma. I don't know what this seemingly informal, grocery-like cafe does to make this Italian sandwich so delicious - but I must say - they do it right!
The bread is the perfect thickness, just about as soft as you could possibly imagine and lightly touched with sesame seeds to give it that perfect appeal. I am convinced this fabulous bread brings what could be just a normal Parma to a whole new stratosphere. Of course, one cannot go wrong with the mouth watering ingredients between the bread either! The fresh mozzarella, basil and prosciutto marry perfectly with the olive oil that is usually doused on the bread. But, douse away!!! As far as I am concerned, this only adds to the flair of this mouth watering sandwich.
Can someone please give me a MMMMM....!?
Best of all, you can enjoy this sandwich for less than $10.

Hi,
Here’s a magazine you should know about. It’s called La Cucina Italiana and it’s the U.S. edition of Italy’s oldest and most popular cooking magazine. It’s all about cooking traditional & modern Italian dishes using healthy, fresh and seasonal ingredients. (Thankfully, it’s for chefs of all levels.) I’m looking to spread the word, and if you’d like to take a look, I’d be delighted to send you a free media subscription. Here’s the site. http://www.lacucinaitalianamagazine.com. Also, if you want to host a recipe contest, we can provide the winner with a free subscription as well. Some ideas for the contest are:
- Momma’s homemade spaghetti sauce
- The tastiest organic Italian soup for fall weather
- Gelato to chill for
- Holidays in the homeland…the most authentic – and delicious – Italian holiday dish
If you’d like to receive the magazine, please send your contact information to me at Vickie@reynoldspublicrelations.com. Thanks!
