A little Grace in St Paul's

It’s always important to find a decent place to have a quick lunch or snack near your office. These days I’ve been working near St Paul’s Cathedral in Blackfriars. Good thing is that there are plenty of options over there, Fleet street is full of commerce, including sushi, burritos, pizza, and burger options. But it was in Creed lane where I found the jackpot, Grace a small corner bakery shop, with artisan sandwiches, salads, soups, and hot sandwiches as well.

Sausage roll

I have had pork sandwich and steak sandwich, excellent both of them, but in my last stop in the place, they had a burger, so I couldn’t miss the chance. Also a best seller is the sausage roll, this time I got the last one available. The burger is pretty straight forward, cheese and bacon, with rocket, tomato, ketchup, and mayo.

The Burger

The verdict, excellent as everything I have had before in the place, if you’re near the area it’s a must to go.

The damage, the burger is 6 pounds, no fries but you can add some crisps.

The conclusion, amazing... sadly they don’t have it regularly, so you have to keep going and asking if they have that day in the menu the burger. But don’t worry if they don’t because the other options won’t disappoint you. If I had to qualify them in my scale is definitely a solid 8.

The Burger

These sandwiches are so good that I can imagine George eating one of those in the episode “The Blood” where he wants to combine having sex and eat.

Jerry: Didn't go for it, huh?

George: No.

Jerry: So, she didn't appreciate the erotic qualities of the salted cured meats?

George: She tolerated the strawberries and the chocolate sauce, but eh, it's not a meal, you know? Food and sex, those are my two passions. It's only natural to combine them.

Jerry: Natural? Sex is about love between a man and a woman, not a man and a sandwich.

George: Jerry, I'm not suggesting getting rid of the girl. She's integral.

Jerry: Maybe instead of trying to satisfy two of your needs, how about satisfying one of somebody else's.

George: Hey, speaking of which, I found a great way to separate the skin from the top of the pudding without leaving any around the edges; exacto knife.

Jerry: I told you George, no more pudding. I'm starting a purification program. Keep all that kind of food away from me.

George: Well, I guess these would be out of the question.

Jerry: What the hell is that?

George: Pudding skin singles.
