Café Mish opened in Mayfair promising posh handmade
sandwiches, and being a sandwichophile (yes, it’s a word**) I wanted to get up
there, pronto.
Sadly, this is not how you do gourmet sandwiches (take a
trip to Street Kitchen’s sandwich joint for a prime example of how to do it
well). I ordered the medium which set me back almost a tenner and decided to
get lamb because, well, when do I ever have lamb in a sandwich? I unwrapped the
reasonably hefty sandwich with much anticipation to find it was stuffed with
lukewarm, barely seasoned and overly fatty lamb, and some onion chutney that
tasted like it could have come out of any old supermarket jar. Bitterly
disappointing. As a side note, when the woman in front of me asked what was in
the roast pork special, both the girls on the till had no idea and had to ask
in the kitchen. At this, I suspected things might not be kosher but ordered
anyway. So I can’t say I was massively surprised when it didn’t live up to its
potential.
I did very much enjoy the homemade chipsticks they came with though - they were excellent.
