The Godmother

July 25, 2014




Possibly one of, if not the best, Italian cold cut sandwich I’ve ever had! About 10 years ago, I was working in Santa Monica, and my coworker looked at me in astonishment as to why I had never been to Bay Cities on Lincoln Blvd. She claimed the Godmother was the sandwich by which I would judge all other Italian sandwiches. She was right!

The Godmother with the works and hot peppers is my go-to order at this place. The sandwich consists of genoa salami, mortadella, coppacola, ham, prociutto, and provolone cheese. The works includes: mayo, mustard, onions, pickles, tomatoes, lettuce, Italian dressing and mild or hot pepper salad! All this served on an Italian roll that has a crisp crust, this sandwich truly is the best of its kind! Expect a 15-20 minute wait at the deli counter, just to get your order in. Luckily, you can order ahead on the site so you can enjoy your sandwich and be back at the office within the hour!
