Ryan Pollock says mid-April is likely for the opening of Rybread, a sandwich-centric cafe he's running along with his father, Dennis.
Pollock's spot, at 2319 Fairmount Avenue (formerly a pet boutique),will be open for breakfast and lunch to start (They'll brew Chestnut Hill Coffee Co. beans), with eventual plans to expand to p.m. hours. A graduate of the architecture program at Catholic University in D.C., Pollock's been handling design and construction himself.
The menu features a slew of sandwiches named after American cities. (The inspiration behind this, Pollock says, was a several-month road trip he took with his girlfriend a few years back.) He'll use Le Bus breads and Boar's Head meats for sandwiches like the "New York" (a deli special, with corned beef, Swiss, kraut and Russian dressing on rye), the "NOLA" (shrimp salads, greens) and one named for the cafe, featuring a crab cake, greens, tomato and chipotle mayo on a bun. "Good, quality sandwiches that make people want to try the next sandwich," says Pollock. Soups, salads and homemade treats will round out the eats.
[...] Meal Ticket has some more on Rybread, the new Fairmount sandwich spot aiming for an April opening. [Meal Ticket] [...]
wait wait wait. Deli lunch meat for a corned beef sandwhich? This guy obviously has no idea what he's doing (food wise anyway). Why would anyone in their right mind pay for that - - at a "sandwich-centric cafe"?
