Another Great Meal at Butcher

Had the craving last night, gf and I sat at the bar.
To start, house veggies in a tangy vinegarette. Would have taken a pic but were devoured instantly. One thing I've noticed on my latest trips is how much I enjoy their vegetable small plates and sides. Pairing with the veggies we had fried pig ear terrine with chili paste and mint. Mint may be my new fav pairing with fried dishes. (At Cochon they do a fried gator with mint that is superb)
On to the mains, I went off the limb and tried the lamb with cucumber and mint, she had the gambino per my recommendation. Lamb was served as a classic gyro, but again dam the fresh cucumber and mint just set it to another level.
The Gambino was so good I could see Tommy Devito eating one in between his Cutty n waters.
We had these with a bag of house chips.
And also randomly the bartender handed us a boudin and pickle plate "from the kitchen". I was like, "umm yes I will!"

I'm addicted to the Gambino.

Out of all the Italian style sandwiches I've ever had it reigns supreme.

Without a doubt.

If an out of towner asks for one rec, lunch at Butcher is where I send them.

Love Butcher. I think they have the best muff anywhere. Their meats in deli are great too. Highly recommend the bologna. A++

Their muff is my least favorite. Had it a few times and won't order it again. I don't like the finely chopped olive salad and there was something else about it that I didn't enjoy.

I'll be down in that area Sunday... might have to hit it up.

Gambino
By far the best Italian sandwich I've ever had. Never had a bad meal at Butcher.

I can't pass up their pork belly, mint, and cucumber sandwich on white bread. It's only time I ever eat white bread.

I think you also short sold the lamb there --- it was a really perfectly done roasted lamb sliced thin. While the construction of the sandwich is gyro style, it was MUCH better at every possible detail-- as expected.
