Sandwiches. Some make them simple. Some go condiment crazy.

But when you head to MELT Sandwich Shop in White Plains, it’s different. At this sandwich shop, which only uses fresh ingredients, all the sandwiches end up the same way—baked in an oven and (of course) melted. But how they get there? That’s your choice…

You start by selecting your roll size: short, flat or long ($6.50 – $8.50). The short is more than enough for me, and I go for the whole wheat, although other options are available (and hopefully, coming soon: gluten free). Then you choose your meat—beef, rosemary Dijon pork, pastrami, turkey or chicken breast… They’ve got it all. Seems pretty simple so far, right? Just wait until you select the “combo.”

Chef Bill Hall has created a variety of flavorful arrangements to add some punch to your sandwich. The “French onion,” for example, tops your sammie with sautéed onions, Gruyere cheese and au jus. You’re immediately thinking roast beef, right? Switch it up and go with the turkey.

One of my favorites—the “Italian”—combines broccoli rabe, sharp provolone and slow roasted tomatoes. I’ve had it with both chicken and turkey breast.

If you’re not a sandwich person, you don’t have to miss out on the MELT fun. The grilled pizzas ($9), show Chef Hall’s knack for putting great food combinations together. Soups and salads are also available.
