Sandwich Heroes

Rating: NNNNN


Commisso Brothers and Racco
8 Kincourt, at Dufferin, 416-651-7671


Tony Soprano would appreciate these messy, old-school veal sandwiches spiked with hot banana peppers and sweet with caramelized onions. Tell them Steve the Fag sent ya.

Mustachio
St. Lawrence Market South, 91 Front East, lower level, 416-368-5241


A mob scene on market Saturday, this Mediterranean lunch counter offers taste-intensive deep-fried eggplant sandwiches on foccacia. Heavenly.

Café Bernate
1024 Queen West, at Givins, 416-535-2835


A very laid-back lunch spot pumping out multiple sandwich, soup and salad combos. Fancy a sam’rich of ham, avocado, provolone on Dijon’d baguette sided with peppery guac and retro greens tossed in poppy seed mayo? Thought so.

Sucre
471 Richmond West, at Brant, 416-703-8855


When fashionistas eat — rarely, granted — they pig-out on swell s’wiches like this modernist luncheonette’s salade niçoise in a bun: canned tuna, roasted red pepper and fennel, ripe tomato and olive tapenade on French stick. C’est chic.

Rocco’s Plum Tomato
585 Bloor West, 416-539-9009, and other locations


More famous for his pasta ‘n’ pizza, Rocco also makes a great Rustico Club. Think of it as a mile-high triple-decker Italian sub loaded with roasted red pepper, grilled chicken breast, prosciutto, provolone, caramelized onion and arugula. Delizioso.
