they filed it under hot sandwiches

but it didn't quite live up to the name.

Dropped by The Sentinel last week for lunch to try a new sandwich, the lamb and pork meatball sandwich with cabbage and spicy tomato sauce:

so saucy the meatballs just slid right out!
Pickle greatly appreciated!

I like the hearty size of the meatballs. There are more than three, a couple slipped right off the tomato sauce and hid behind the sandwich. The meatballs taste very savory, always a plus. The tomato sauce packs a little heat but not enough to deter any delicate palates. The delicious buttery bread they use is always a winner and works wonders at sopping up the tomato sauce. And The Sentinel strikes again with their use of cabbage, which keeps it's crunchy texture despite been drenched in sauce. Lettuce, take note!

The only problem is that the sandwich wasn't very hot temperature-wise when I sat down to eat. You may think that I lollygagged along Montgomery Street on my way back to work but unfortunately, that was not the case. In fact, the distance from The Sentinel to my new office is much shorter than the journey to the main building. So friends at The Sentinel, please heat those meatballs up!

Warning: for fans of the minty-chocolate Andes that accompanied each sandwich, it appears that The Sentinel has switched to Werther's Butterscotch candies. Werther's is delicious but I prefer Andes.
