Had the pleasure of meeting *THE* STL Sandwichman who recommended that we grab a sandwich at LeGrand's. Since I was early, I was able to peruse the market which has an adequate but small selection of groceries, limited produce, and a variety of microbrews in the cooler and wine selection.
Being new to town and a first-time patron, I had to try the #1 seller: the Legend Club, which has salsalito turkey, pastrami, pepperoni, bacon, hot pepper cheese, havarti, garlic cream cheese, and roasted red pepper sauce. Although I had requested that the French bread to be toasted, however, the sandwich was soft when I bit into it and did not have the consistency I was expecting for a toasted sandwich. Despite this rather small short coming, the ingredients themselves were of quality.
If memory serves me right, Mr. Sandwichman had the McGwire Special which comprised of ham, roast beef, salami, cheddar, provel, lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion, horseradish sauce and was willing to trade half of my Club for half of his sandwich. I love and prefer sandwiches that contain vegetables therefore this sandwich had me after the very first bite. The horseradish is mild and not overpowering and the bread was more toasted than my Club.
Both sandwiches had their own merits and were amazing. The only reason why I wouldn't order these sandwiches again is because I want to try other options! Sandwich staff and cashier were kind and courteous.
Tip: Don't forget to grab a sandwich loyalty card and have it punched to earn towards a free sandwich, because...who wouldn't like a free sandwich?
