Today, Nov. 3, is National Sandwich Day! I plan to celebrate by eating a sandwich for lunch. But you know, I eat a lot of sandwiches, and I take a lot of pictures of them too. Each month I find myself with some leftover pics that didn't make it into a blog post but still look delicious. So I present my new feature, Randomwiches, where I round up eight sandwiches that have nothing really in common except that I ate them. Let the celebration begin!

On the Phone: Falafel Wrap at Blue Front
Sometimes, I'm not sure what causes it, I'll have a very intense craving for a falafel wrap, and the Blue Front Cafe version hits the spot, particularly because the not too crunchy, not too soggy falafel sits on a bed of melt-in-your-mouth roasted eggplant and crisp cukes. I should not have eaten all of this, but I did.

A Yummy Menu From Blue Front to Back
For as long as I can remember, the Blue Front Cafe has unassumingly served Middle Eastern Food and sandwiches in the Upper Haight. Like so many other shops on this street, the menu is written out in multicolored chalk and sounds somewhat generic. But secretly, it's a sandwich oasis.
From Mediterranean wraps to hot pastrami sandwiches to creative hybrids like the Avocado Burrito Max with lentils, everything I've tried has been highly satisfying. I especially love the turkey sandwich, made with juicy, oven roasted white meat. Check out photos of it and the hot chicken Caesar sandwich in the gallery below.
