Grilled Cheese Goodness!

We went out this afternoon for lunch at Melt with a couple of friends who had never gone before.  It's rather fun going down the list of sandwiches and pointing out all the ones that you have tried.  If you don't remember from my last review, Melt is a restaurant that specializes in grilled cheese sandwiches with many different combinations of ingredients. 

I had the Wake and Bacon, which is eggs, bacon, and American cheese.   They actually ask you how you want your eggs.  I went with over medium, that way the eggs wouldn't be all runny when I bit into the sandwich.

My husband had the Cleveland Cheese Steak.  It contains slow roasted beef, shaved thin, garlic wild mushrooms, sautéed onions & peppers, provolone cheese.  

My friend had the Wake and Bacon, but substituted ham for eggs (foreground sandwich).   It is similar to the former menu item, the Porky Cheese Sandwich.   The Porky cheese sandwich contained honey ham, bacon, and Swiss cheese.  I don't know how long it has been gone from the menu, but it was pretty good.  The sandwich in the background is the January sandwich special, the Hungry Hungarian Paprikash Melt.  It has pulled roasted chicken, homemade dumplings, creamy Paprikash sauce, and provolone cheese.

All of the sandwiches we ordered had french fries and cole slaw.   None of us were really cole slaw fans.   However, Melt will substitute extra fries instead.   I'll keep that in mind for next time.  The sandwiches are served on Texas toast and they are really generous portions.  Each of us boxed half of our sandwich to take home.   Each sandwich is definitely two meals.
