| - If it looks like a pig and eats like a pig, it's probably me.
Since the weather was near-perfect this week, I decided to walk over to the market for lunch with nothing but Portuguese chicken in mind. Unfortunately, I wasn't the only slob who had this idea as the line at Churrasco of St Lawrence was massive. So, when I spotted the menu at The Sausage King, I decided to hop out of line and grab either a porchetta and BBQ beef sandwich.
Spoiler alert: I grabbed one of each because I have no self-control and I'm a filthy animal.
The meat counter itself looked fantastic, showcasing some bad-ass butchering skills - the French-cut pork chops looked unbelievably good - and the staff were very friendly as well.
As for the sammies, the porchetta was a clear-winner in my book, even without crackling. It was only dressed with mayo and hot peppers so the meat was properly showcased, though next time I think I'd skip the mayo and the beef, though good, isn't actually BBQ'd, it's slow-cooked so the meat is buttery tender, but it was really heavily dressed, so I'll just have to go back and try again.
For a normal human, a single sandwich should be enough as they're served on a large kaiser and chock-full-o-goodness. Read: lots to eat for $6.75 tax in.
Will eat again.
