"The smell of slow-roasting rotisserie chicken will draw you into Polk Street Market in Nob Hill like a black bear to a tent of snacks. Follow the scent all the way to the small back counter for your reward: the spicy Spitfire sandwich, featuring that perfect rotisserie chicken, plus bacon, jalapeños, and sriracha mayo. And, like all the other sandwiches here, it’s loaded with all the fixings and enough to last two meals. Also check out the rotating sandwich specials filled with things like brown sugar tri-tip or pulled rotisserie chicken with coleslaw and chipotle mayo." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
