My best man at my wedding had the first name of Mauro. Driving down the road one day, I saw the Cafe Mauro and figured it would be fun to go there on our anniversary so my friend who lives 1000 km away could be us vicariously.
I ordered the chicken Parmesan on a baguette, and my wife ordered the Prosciutto sandwich. We went in after the lunch rush and were the only ones in the cafe. I remarked to my wife several times that I thought the sandwiches were taking way too long (12 min or so).
Regardless, we were both exceptionally impressed when we got the sandwiches and it was worth the wait. They were toasted perfectly. Crisp on the inside out out. My chicken had a breaded crust, which was thin and wasn't thicker than the meat as I've seen. My wife remarked that the flavours were perfectly balanced. No one ingredient overwhelmed the other, which shows to my mind, the owner and sandwich guru Mauro put thought into his menu creations.
Without doubt, these were the best sandwiches either of us could remember having in years and without doubt, we'll be back when in the downtown area.
