Mitch Prensky, chef and co-owner of Supper (926 South St.) with his wife Jennifer, is an avowed perfectionist.� "It took two months of trial and error to get that hot dog recipe down," he says of his bacon-wrapped, deep-fried dog dressed with kraut, barbecued onions and beer mustard, featured on Supper's brand-new lunch menu.� In addition to house-made hot dogs on house-baked buns, Supper is lining up an array of classics with a twist for lunch service.

"I had all these great ideas for sandwiches," says Prensky. "And where can I put them?� It's not really a dinner menu thing."� Take the Butcher's Salad, Prensky's take on the usual chef's salad.� "Rolled-up lunch meat on lettuce? What chef would want to eat that?" he said.� His response is a variety of his house-made charcuterie and smokey blue cheese over greens dressed with bacon-mustard vinaigrette.

Lunch launches Wednesday, October 21 and will run Wednesday through Saturday, 11:30 a.m. - 2:30 p.m. from then on.� Prensky prepared three of his signature sandwiches for Meal Ticket to photograph and take for a test bite. We shot, we ate, and it was scrum-delicious.
