5 sandwiches you must try in Karachi

Here are our top sandwich picks in Karachi.

KARACHI: When we talk about culinary inventions, sandwich is undoubtedly one of the most popular; it’s quick, convenient and delicious, not to mention a staple at most restaurants.

Did you know? The word sandwich was termed after British statesman John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich. Rumor has it that on one particular occasion, while he was in the middle of a marathon card game the Earl asked for his meat dinner to be folded between two pieces of bread so he could eat it without making a mess. The ‘sandwich’ thus got its name.

Since they were first pioneered, sandwiches have evolved into multiple variants — they’re not just the most available and practical food, but they’re also versatile. You can have a sandwich for breakfast, lunch or dinner and it’ll be a complete meal.

You’ll find this delicious creation at every restaurant, whether in the form of a panini, shawarma, wrap or just a regular layered club. Here’s a look at our favourite sandwiches in Karachi:

1. Xander’s Café

The Roast Beef Open Face Sandwich at Xander’s, will make you go back for seconds. This herb crusted roast beef is served on lightly toasted country bread flawlessly complemented by onion garlic marmalade and bell peppers. The sandwich is light, flavourful, and satisfying and the rocket salad on the side goes perfectly with the meal.

2 Butler’s Café

One word: Panini! Yes that’s what you must try at Butler’s café. Pesto Chicken Panini and Mediterranean Panini are two sandwich variants you might make a habit of. The former is a perfect mix of green pesto and spicy chicken along with cheese and vegetables, whereas the latter is a delicious mix of sun-dried, tomatoes, feta cheese black olives and peppers. Bonus, they serve their panini with your choice of fries or salad.

3. Subway

Friendly prices, plenty of choice, and fresh ingredients — it can’t get any better than that. A sandwich how you like it; with tomato or without, with your choice of bread and meat, and all that follows. Subway must try: Roast Beef Sub, Chicken Fajita and Subway Melt.

4. Rowtisserie

While you probably hop to this eatery for the rotisserie chicken, you must try their chicken shawarma wrap called Row Shawarma. With salad, hummus and vegetables served alongside the chicken, this dish is pure wholesome goodness. You may opt for the brown pita bread or white, both are just as delicious with the tantalizing chicken.

5. Espresso

If what you’re looking for is a sandwich that comes with generous sides and is thoroughly fulfilling, you need to look no further than Espresso’s Buffalo Chicken Wrap. Accompanied with potato wedges, and salad, this sandwich is the one to go for when you’re really famished.

Espresso’s Must try: Triple Cheese Roast Beef Melt, Buffalo Chicken Wrap and Blackened Chicken Sandwich.

Special mention: Popular among foodies is Hoagies. They offer an array of sandwiches definitely worth a try.

I'm going to pretend to have not seen the comments on donkey et al so that I can enjoy the beautiful visuals and dream.
 
Chicken is even more dangerous. All dead checkens in farms are sold out @ Rs 8/kg.
Better eat at home and take food with you while traveling, else buy fruits.

These days it,s risky.You may get a taste of donkey meat or some dead animal.
I am avoiding all red meat these days.Chicken is fine.

If its a fine dine restaurant then its ok but if its some what a Dhaba dont even think of it. No matter what the big brands never do that and they follow their protocol so dont worry.

That,s just your assumption many times the tv teams busted kitchens of big brands with awful hygienic conditions.
According to me dhabba is more clean than because at least their kitchens are open at the front entrance and you can see what they are doing.
I am a big fan of dhabbas at the GT road towards lahore the taste of their chicken karahi is superior than a five star hotel.

Some of us have also tasted pig...:D...yakh
I am one of them i accidentally ate it once in a student cafeteria when i was broad and second time my scum bag Chinese room mate mixed it with a chicken :lol:

Well I am unaware of Lahore situation but here in Karachi it's altogether different. If its a premier brand no matter local or international its safe to eat but if it is Dhabba you never know what they are serving you unless its price matches the standard which determine their raw material or if it is in a place which make it suspicious. Like in Gulistan-e-Jauhar I have seen to many Dhabba restaurants with good food but you cant say the same about the Dhabba at Kati Pahari or Sohrab Goth.

This happened to me as well, once my teacher shared a chips packet with me, I took one piece and put it in mouth I realized there is something wrong and I didn't swallowed that, after my teacher left I Threw that shit out of my mouth...:agree:

The packet of chips wouldnt have pig meat in it . Mostly it would be chemical flavours obtained chemically with nothing organic , my question would be is it still haram ? The essence would mimic the flavours with nothing obtained from pig meat would it still be haram?
I am not sure if the flavours are obtained 100%chemically or organic in source.
