Appetizers: feta stuffed jalapeno peppers [and a magical strawberry salsa created by Dave that I hope he remembers all the ingredients for...mmm!]
Angelica's Vampire Fighter – a whole head of roasted garlic topped with double toasted cashews, hidden under a coat of brie and a dash of cinnamon.
Dave's "Burger X" - Handmade patties combine extra lean ground organic beef, chopped black olives, 1 egg, dismantled chorizo, goat feta, crushed tamari rice crackers, sea salt & fresh ground pepper, herb de provence, hints of maple syrup, Worcestershire and brown sugar. A slug of wine chorizo was hidden in the patty and a slice of it was laid on top. Lettuce and toasted rice-base cheese bread contained it for safe consumption.
(Note: I am sure glad I wrote about this soon after making it; I'm finally posting details about "Burger X" on August 16th, 2013.)
*****
AS on AS – well, it was interesting. Not good, not bad. Just interesting. I couldn’t tell if I was eating something salty or sweet, crunchy or melt-in-your-mouth. It seemed to be all of those things and none of those things.
AS on DM – delicious! Simply delicious. Complex yet well balanced, hearty but not heavy. This is what food tastes like when it is made with love. And there was no mistaking that this was made with a lot of love.
DM on DM - Because it's August 16th, 2013, which is nearly exactly 2.5 years after we ate these sandwiches, I'll have to defer to AS's opinion. I have full confidence in her taste whenever she has good things to say about me or my sandwiches.
DM on AS - Again, it's been two and a half years since I ate this sandwich. By the look and sound of it though, I could go for one right now. Great concept, name, presentation... and even her own description has me curious enough that I'd like to have a re-do on this whole round of Danger Man and sandwiches!!
The Verdict – hands down Dave’s sandwich. This was a masterpiece. I’d eat it again in a heartbeat.
