The Best Sandwich in the Whole Wide World?

At North Star we offer maybe a dozen types of sandwich on our menu, ranging from the humble but ever-popular bacon butty, to the stuff-yourself-until-you-burst North Star Club, but I was wondering what you folks thought about our sandwich offerings. Is there enough choice? Or too much? Would you prefer your sarnies in tortilla wraps or on plain old sliced white? Do you like your butties so stuffed (a la New York deli) that you need to dislocate your jaw to cram it in, or do you favour British restraint where your fillings are concerned?

Sandwich Project is a great site, featuring more than 2000 recipes for the world's favourite lunchtime nosh. Let us know if there's anything you'd like to see added to our menu.

And pictured above is apparantly the world's most expensive sandwich, offered last year by Selfridges, (I have no idea how many they sold or if it is still on their menu). This rather over-facing concoction is made up of "rare Wagyu beef, the finest fresh duck foie gras, black truffle mayonnaise, brie de meaux, rocket, red pepper and mustard confit with English plum tomatoes in a sour dough bread" - a snip at £85.00!!!

I'll have two please! And one for my friend!!
