National Sandwich Day at Larry’s Deli

Saturday, Nov 03, 2018 | On Target Page: Land O'Lakes
This day is known as "National Sandwich Day". There is a commonly known story about the history of the word sandwich, and it’s attributed to John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich. Sandwich is a city in the shire of Kent in England. John was a well a known lover of card games, and it’s said he originally ordered his meat to be delivered to him between two slices of bread so that he would not get his grease laden fingers on the cards. As people heard of this, they started ordering their food “The Same as Sandwich”, and eventually just “a sandwich”. From such things are legendary culinary delights born. Sandwich Day celebrates both the Earl himself, and the wonder he brought to us in the form of the sandwich. After-all, "necessity is the mother of invention". And what better place to celebrate this culinary staple? Larry's Deli of course! Stop by today & honor the Earl of Sandwich & celebrate his ingenious creation! You know you want one!
