EAT THIS IMMEDIATELY: The Liverrace at Paesano's

In the impassioned struggle for liver-ation, chicken bests calf at least for now. Nathan Baynes, partner with chef Peter McAndrews in Paesano's (901 Christian St.), says the sandwich shop's original Liverrace, which came layered with seared slices of calves' liver, wasn't selling very well they needed to switch things up, while keeping the spirit of the original sandwich (and its amazing name) alive. So about three months ago, Baynes called a vital-organ audible, benching the beef in favor of seasoned and battered chicken livers wrapped in fatty salami, with cool-crunchy iceberg lettuce, raw white onion, roasted tomatoes, broad strokes of garlic mayo and a nice bit of gorgonzola. If this sandwich doesn't drastically improve liver's public image, we don't know what will. Eat this immediately.
