july 19 sabich sandwich pop-up in Brattleboro

(before the L’Eclair show!)

SABICH IS ONE OF THE WORLD’S MOST UNDERRATED SANDWICHES

It might be the name. (you’re probably pronouncing it wrong). Or maybe because a lot of people don’t take a vegetarian sandwich seriously.

But who knows… it may be everywhere one day. A friend who visited Paris recently told me that the biggest line he saw for food there was at a sabich spot.

Fried eggplant. Long-boiled eggs. Cuke-tomato salad. Tahini. Pickle. Sabich was once an Iraqi-Jewish breakfast that someone turned into lunch by stuffing into a pita and then adding flavor bombs via a trifecta of sauces: amba (iraqi mango pickle), zhug (yemenite cilantro pesto), and harissa (north african hot sauce).

Good pita — the fluffy kind that absorbs sauce-juice and doesn’t break when you pack it — is essential. So we’re teaming up with Yalla in Brattleboro, VT to serve up this sandwich in their amazing pitas for you. It’s a little pre-game hang before L’Eclair blows your mind a few blocks away at the Stone Church.
