When I was 19 or so I was struck with Wanderlust. In a pre-internet World, I wanted to get out there and SEE it. I ended up in Australia living out of a bag, and times got LEAN. With the funds in my Bank account rapidly dwindling I started getting a lot less picky about what I did to make a buck or two. I got kicked out of my place and found myself Homeless in Sydney – then I wandered into Taste Buds Café. A friend pointed me towards them a tiny Café in downtown that was trying to get creative about how they could bring in some revenue. We came to an agreement. Every Morning I’d arrive at 6 am – spend a few hours making sandwiches and wrapping them – then hit the ROAD. I’d run all over Sydney selling them out of my handy laundry basket – I’d keep a percentage of the profits and a few sandwiches to boot.
It was perfect and a life-long obsession with the sandwich was born. So I propose to YOU – let’s find the Great Manitoban Sandwich! Starting at YOUR front door where do you go for the BEST sammich around and what is it?
