London PB&J

Ask many Europeans if they like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and you’ll usually get a turned up nose.  “Yuck,” you invariably hear, “that mixture of sweet and salty makes me sick just thinking about it.”

Well, here is my version of London PB&J.  It’s called Arrosto, the ‘Carvery and Coffee House’, specializing in of all things, coffee and roast beef.  You see, they serve coffee until noon, where they then serve coffee and roast beef sandwiches.

Now, I am all for combining flavors and have had roast beef for Sunday brunch.  But to have it on a regular morning commute?  That’s seems funny to me.

There is some good news in this bad economy - Arrosto is looking for people!  According to the sign, ‘Experience is preferable’.  So, if you have that ‘rare blend’ of coffee roasting and beef carving skills, there is a take-away sandwich place in downtown London looking for you.
