Hi Daniel, Thanks for the welcome. Yes, apologies for that--I'm in Richmond, VA. Not too shabby for quality restaurant choices, especially for a city this size. The sandwich very well could have been pressed, but I honestly don't remember. That sounds like it wouldn't do anything but make it better, regardless of their original method. I do remember that the bread wasn't soft. -Lauren

Hi folks, I am a new member and have to say I have spent a lot of time enjoying your conversations, opinions and wonderful cooking ideas. We have a cuban restaurant here in town that used to make my favorite sandwich: 1 half-baguette, slathered on the inside with cilantro pesto 2 cuban-spiced grilled chicken breasts canadian bacon grilled pineapple cheese optional then baked for a few minutes to crisp the bread. It was sooooo good...
