SoMa, San Francisco · shop
A cash-and-carry SoMa lunch counter that runs on the premise that a sandwich either earns its keep or it doesn't. The 49er — corned beef, pastrami, and brisket layered on a garlic french roll with cherry peppers and house Board sauce — settles the question immediately, and the Menschkowitz does the same with avocado bridging the gap between the pastrami and a little California. No phone orders, no delivery, no table service — just good sandwiches and a line that moves.
