The Top 10 Chicago A Sandwich a Day Posts in 2011

When the Chicago site was preparing to launch, one of the columns I knew I wanted to bring over here was A Sandwich a Day—because, hey, who doesn't love sandwiches? But then reality started to set in. It's a very literal title, with a different sandwich being showcased every single weekday. I began to wonder: would there be enough great options to write up?

Turns out I completely underestimated Chicago's sandwich scene, as there are great sandwiches in just about every neighborhood. The diversity was also striking. Sandwiches were overloaded and excessive, or sleek and minimal.

Here are the ten most popular A Sandwich a Day posts from out short stint here in 2011.
