04/29/2005 Archived Entry: "In Search of Reubens"
Jack always teases me because I often order a Reuben sandwich at a deli or restaurant. But I like them, and I rarely make them at home these days. I think it's the sauerkraut that puts him off. Technovangelist Matt Williams says there are no good Reubens around here. "They don't exist in San Francisco, or the Bay Area, or Seattle." I guess my tastes aren't as refined in this area. Have you had a good reuben in Seattle? The reuben sandwich's origins are shrouded in mystery.

The reubens at Essential Bakery (many branches, though I've mostly eaten them in their Madison cafe) are slightly unconventional, but they are delicious. Highly reccommended.

Are you kidding me, for a decent reuben sandwich try the American Cafe at Crossroads. Tell Luke one of the original Trolls sez hi. :o)

I used to eat at the Deli at Fairview Ave E on East Lake union when I used to work at the dot com. The Sandwitches in the back were very good and they served Boar's Head Meats.

Their Reuben was my favorite sandwitch.
