National Sandwich Month: Day 19 takes us to Louis Pizzeria in Cornwall for a Canadian classic: the Hot Chicken Sandwich.

It includes tender chicken inside soft bread, smothered in a rich gravy and fries on the side. This diner staple is especially beloved in Québec and Eastern Canada, where it’s known simply as “Hot Chicken”.

It’s my last sandwich here in Cornwall before I head home and today I’ve got company: Felix, along with his grandpa (If you know, you know, I may have been in his office a few times 🤣)

National Sandwich Month: Day 18 Hamburger & Poutine from Séguin Patate in Cornwall, Ontario! 🚗

So today’s big question: is a hamburger actually a sandwich? 🥪🍔 Charlie says this will become a huge debate!

We had a sandwich planned but things didn’t go as planned as my friend needed to make an unscheduled stop at the local ER, (Don’t worry! She’s doing grand ❤️)

After a long day, we stopped by to get some grub from a local favourite: Séguin Patate. I got a Hamburger and a Poutine!

Fun fact about the name: Séguin is a French surname from the Germanic Sigwin, meaning “victorious friend,” and patate means potato in French, a nod to the chip truck’s fry stand roots 🍟.

Follow along for tomorrow’s sandwich 🥪✨

National Sandwich Month Day 17 🥪 Today’s sandwich is a local Ontario classic: the mock chicken sandwich on homemade bread from Riley’s Bakery in Cornwall, Ontario. 🍞🇨🇦

Despite the name, there’s no chicken here! Mock chicken is a seasoned pork loaf, spiced with paprika for its signature color and flavour.

A nostalgic favourite in Ontario, it was a budget-friendly deli staple for generations.

This sandwich spot was suggested by a viewer on Facebook and Charlie 🙌

National Sandwich Month: Day 16 takes us on the road 🚗✨. I’m in Cornwall, Ontario, to help out a friend for a few days. It was a very long drive (I’ve not driven alone and this long since I broke my ankle).

I didn’t make my own sandwich today but we stopped at The Shack to try the Gyros Pita 🥙. Juicy meat, fresh veggies, creamy tzatziki the perfect road-trip sandwich fix. 
Anyone have any suggestions for sandwiches in Cornwall, Ontario for Charlie (who lives in Cornwall) and I to try? Comment 👇  #nationalsandwichmonth #gyros #cornwallontario #sandwichlove

National Sandwich Month: Day 8 Gyoza 🥟… but make it a sandwich!  
All the flavours of your favourite Japanese dumpling in sandwich form.

Juicy seasoned pork and cabbage filling with garlic, ginger, scallions, and sesame oil. Pan-seared until golden and tucked between crispy flatbread-style wrappers, then drizzled with soy-vinegar dipping sauce and chili oil.

It’s savory, garlicky, and umami-packed. It’s the gyoza we love, just reimagined for your hands instead of chopsticks.

From 🇮🇸 Iceland to 🇻🇳 Vietnam in this bread series, we’re shifting gears to talk about bánh mì. This is my go-to bread for sandwiches and perfect for dipping into Vietnamese Chicken Curry (Cà Ri Gà) or Beef Stew (Bò Kho). 🍞🍛

The story of bánh mì begins with the French 🇫🇷 when they colonized Vietnam, they brought their baguettes. It’s a beautiful symbol of how we take what’s given to us, make it our own, and create something new and meaningful.

Much like my journey during this career break, I’m like a bánh mì – taking my toxic, traumatic experiences and shaping them into something meaningful. It won’t be easy, but it will be a process, and some days I’ll fail... a lot. But that’s the beauty of growth, right? 🌱

Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups Bread Flour
1 cup + 2 tbsp Water
1 Whole Egg (about 1/4 cup)
2 1/4 tsp Instant Yeast
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Sugar
1/2 Vitamin C Tablet (crushed)
Vegetable Oil (as needed)

Yesterday I got asked, “What did you do to your face?” Lol 😂 The power of make-up, good lighting and a 4K camera.

I still think my face looks pretty good without make up! ❤️ all jokes aside, the friend is a very good friend, and I’m not offended. We have always been open and honest and blunt with each other. It’s why we are friends.
