Growing up in a very Colombian family it was unheard to eat a sandwich as a real meal, in fact sandwiches were reserved for a lazy evening when we didn't want to cook and were not really hungry. We, Colombians, love to eat big meals, especially breakfast and lunch and having an unfortunate looking meat "sandwiched" between some white bread just doesn't cut it, and don't get me started with the famous peanut butter and jelly...
Reason why, even with all the years I have lived in the States, I still can't manage to see my main meal be a sad looking sandwich. If I am making one, I over-think everything from what bread, the cheese, veggies well seasoned, herbs and the meat, only to be scavenging the fridge a couple of hours later.
I was extremely happy to find
Vert Kitchen a small, super cute eatery located on west Washington park area.
