Quick Lunch: The Local Butcher Shop

We have been meeting for lunch lately just to catch up and brainstorm ideas for the blog. Today we knew we needed our noon caffeine from our favorite coffeeshop at Berkeley’s Gourmet Ghetto – Philz Coffee. I got a large Tesora medium sweet plus (which I just found out means a little more cream and 1.5 tbsp of sugar). Kris got a Red Sea, Philz Way (which is medium cream and medium sugar) … I think Philz deserves a separate blog post so we’ll write more about their myriad of coffee creations.  By the way if you haven’t heard of Philz, you will soon as Facebook Headquarters has a Philz Coffee Shop on their campus.

 

Since we were heading that way anyway, we thought we should try something new and check out The Local Butcher Shop around the corner. The shop is really a butcher shop, as the name implies, but they also serve one type of sandwich, or sando (as they call it) a day. Today, the sandwich of the day is Meatloaf with Stewed Tomatoes, Sautéed Onions, Arugula, Garlic Aioli on an ACME Sweet Deli Roll.
