after dinner sneeze

t says: I wandered into GTC today to buy a sandwich.  Wanting something lighter than my normal food choices, I opted for their veggie sandwich (the “jardiniere”).  While I was there, I eavesdropped and found out that (and maybe it’s old news to everyone else) that Garces Trading Co. is now going to charge $10 corkage for bottles of wine after the first one.  Bummer man!  Sorry a!

AND, the lady behind the register told me that they are going to move the sandwich-making into the kitchen, move the bakery area to where the sandwiches are, and then put in a full bar where the current bakery is!  Looks like things’ll be changing at GTC, and I’m not sure if it’s for the better (at least, for what I like GTC for … everyone else may disagree and like the change).

How was the sandwich?  Awesome!!  It had grilled radicchio and this thinly sliced zucchini and, most importantly, delicious bread (crusty outside, soft inside).  I would venture to say that it’s the best of the sandwiches currently available (ever since they 86’d the lamb sandwich …).  I would have taken a picture of it, but I had to choose between stopping eating it (for the pic) or continue making my mouth happy with grilled leaf chicory (that’s what radicchio is – I just found out) … and guess which one won!
