5 Parisian addresses where a sandwich is more than just a meal on the go

5 Parisian addresses where a sandwich is more than just a meal on the go

Tired of the classic ham and butter sandwich? Gault&Millau reveals five Parisian addresses where you can devour a sandwich that's out of the ordinary, well-cooked and hearty.

The sandwich, often perceived as a simple snack, has now gone beyond its traditional definition to become a true culinary experience. Far from simple slices of bread with fillings, some establishments are redefining this classic by incorporating refined ingredients, elaborate preparations and boundless creativity. At a time when street food is being elevated to the level of art, we offer you a selection of five addresses where the sandwich is no longer a banal lunch, but a gustatory adventure. Here's our selection of sandwiches like no other, where a passion for cooking slips in between two slices of bread.

Janet: for a pastrami sandwich

The talented Moïse Sfez, already behind Homer Lobster (which holds the title of best lobster roll in the world), opened Janet in 2022, a counter where you can enjoy delicious, well-cooked sandwiches on the spot, or to take away. While the star here is none other than the signature pastrami sandwich, with local corned beef, pickles, pickled onions and homemade sweet mustard, other deOther delectables on the menu include the Smoked Turkey with turkey, the BBQ Beef Roll with shredded beef, and the Mushroom Roll for a vegetarian option.

Micho: Levantine-inspired sandwiches

Young Talent 2022 according to Gault&Millau, Julien Sebbag continues to make headway with his fresh, colorful and fragrant cuisine. In 2023, he has even decided to imprison this culinary touch between two slices of hallah (traditional Jewish bread, similar to brioche) with Micho, an address in the Moma Group where the flavors of Tel-Aviv can be enjoyed on site or to take away.

Sando Club: for a Japanese sandwich

Far from being just another sandwich, the sando is distinguished by its extra-moist Japanese sandwich bread, called Shokupan, halfway between milk bread and sandwich bread. At Sando Club, you won't go hungry, with well-stocked sandwiches like the Tori-Katsu with panko breaded chicken fillet, carrots, red cabbage, bulldog sauce and sriracha mayo, or the traditional Tamago with omelette, crudités, fried onions, hot sauce and mayonnaise!

Filakia: for a Greek-style sandwich

Filakia is a safe bet. Open since 2014 (proof of its success), the address offers Greek-style pitas, topped with a choice of spit-roasted pork or chicken gyros spit-roasted pork or chicken, minted beef meatballs, breaded cod fillet, or fresh zucchini-feta-herb fritters for a vegetarian option. "We have six souvlakis on the menu, one of which changes every month. For the latter, we play around a bit with the recipes to come up with something different," confides the Filakia team. This XXL sandwich can be accompanied by lemon-candied potatoes, or even halloumi fries for those with a sweet tooth... Enough to fill you up!

Ritz Paris Le Comptoir: for top-of-the-range ham and butter

Ritz Paris Le Comptoir, listed in Gault&Millau, is François Perret's flagship boutique. In addition to his signature madeleines and other sweet treats, the Ritz pastry chef offers top-of-the-range sandwiches with a choice of fillings: lobster; salmon; Caesar salad style... While they are all made with finely selected productss, the real originality is undoubtedly the flaky bread that serves as the long, slender container for these on-the-go delights. François Perret recommends "the traditional jambon-beurre, now renamed jambon-comté."
