  • Tea Sandwiches

    Tea Sandwiches

    Delicate, distinctive, and undoubtedly delicious–the tea sandwich is part finger food, part decorative art. Two thin radish slices atop a dollop of parsley butter, chicken salad accented with basil and garlic salt, a whipped paste of olive and cream cheese– who would have thought such peculiar creations would be the perfect complement to afternoon tea?…

  • Mashed Potato and Chips on potato roll

    Mashed Potato and Chips on potato roll

    So you’re a meat and potatoes kind of person– minus the meat? Then it’s time for potato on potato on potato action. The soft warmth of mashed potato finds its home on a potato roll. The combination would be enough, but the crunch of potato chips makes the sandwich sing. With such a dynamic item,…

  • Head Cheese and Swiss on kaiser roll

    Head Cheese and Swiss on kaiser roll

    When they cut the head off of the cow or pig to make your burgers or bacon, they don’t discard it before scraping off the small bits to make a loaf of meat. Head cheese is the Frankenstein patchwork of a departed face– an exercise in savagery. You can buy a few slices from your…

  • Bacon, Lettuce, and Tomato on white

    Bacon, Lettuce, and Tomato on white

    Who’s that on the side of the road? Looking for a ride, friend? You look nice enough. A classic, even. White bread, toasted brown and covered with mayonnaise, topped with a crisp bacon foundation, a leafy lettuce cover, and juicy tomato topping. Why don’t you hop in the car? Which way are you heading? My…

  • Pork Barbecue & Bacon on hamburger bun

    Pork Barbecue & Bacon on hamburger bun

    You smell it in the air. It’s getting to be time. Time to pull out the grill and slow roast some pork over charcoal. Don’t be an wuss either– dip the bun in the pork’s juices and crisp some bacon on the side. Your healthcare provider can handle the consequences. The smoky aroma of it…

  • Sloppy Joe on hamburger bun

    Sloppy Joe on hamburger bun

    The sloppy joe is the most delicious mess you may ever find between bread. While the photo may not be the most elaborate portrayal of slop, the sandwich will leave you feeling a bit saucy and sticky. Chunks of meat bathe in a pan of sauce– tomato, seasonings, and sweetness–  until they are rich with…

  • Spinach and Egg on whole grain toast

    Spinach and Egg on whole grain toast

    Who knew that morning could be so healthy and wholesome, yet so rich and flavorful? A sandwich for breakfast can cause a revelation and sometimes revolution. Whole grain toast, spinach, and egg are topped with turkey bacon and a sprinkling of feta to create a creamy, crunchy experience that feels just a little bit naughty.…

  • Peanut Butter and Bacon on white

    Peanut Butter and Bacon on white

    You always sat in the back of class. You’re a dreamer, looking out the window and wishing you were somewhere else. In a dream world you can make anything you want. Ride a rocket-powered horse, live in a house made out of candy, make a peanut butter and bacon sandwich. Oh, but wait– that last…

  • Video Portrait: Turkey and Cheese

    Video Portrait: Turkey and Cheese

    Video Portrait: Turkey & Cheese on Italian from SandwichPortraits on Vimeo. A first try at a video portrait, following some inspiration by Richard Phillips’ treatment of Lindsay Lohan. Much like Lohan, we had to start with a classic sandwich next door that has a bit of a bad side to it.

  • Chicken tacos – April Fools’ Day

    Chicken tacos – April Fools’ Day

    Pocketed food. Maybe that’s what we’re looking for here. A pocket to hold our goods together, making it easier to shove food into our mouths. If that defines a sandwich for you, then don’t forget the taco. Chicken on the bottom, topped with salsa, sprinkled with cilantro flakes (when the leaves can’t be found) and…
