The Hungry Nomad: Rybread Cafe- Fairmount/Art Museum (Philadelphia, USA)

August 29, 2012

Rybread Cafe- Fairmount/Art Museum (Philadelphia, USA)

It all started with two laid off architects. The year: 2009. Ryan (the 'R' in RyBread) and his girlfriend found themselves unemployed and headed on a road trip of a lifetime. Over the course of the road trip a business idea would develop. Why not open a gourmet sandwich shop in a really neat space? This is exactly what they did when they returned. Rybread Cafe is in our neighborhood and our favorite gourmet sandwich shop. The choices are endless and all equally delicious. 



I'm sure both were great architects but we are selfishly happy that they decided to open a sandwich shop instead. Nothing beats the joy of eating, not even architecture. 


The hair salon turned cafe is small and intimate with only a few indoor seats and several on the outside. The wall is covered by a chalkboard listing their sandwiches in detail. I've only had occasion to try four on the list but have never been dissapointed. 


There is also a variety of bagels, muffins, scones, salads, soups and paninis. Best part: it's all made to order and exteremely fresh. (See Menu).


On my last trip, I had the Hollywood while the Count ordered the Philadelphia. 


My Hollywood sandwich consisted of multi grain toast slabbed with a thick layer of hummus, cucumbers, red onion, shaved carrot, tomatoes and cheese. A great option for vegetarians. 



The Philadelphia was packed with genoa salami, hot cappi, prosciutto, provolone, greens, tomatoes, onions and vinaigrette served on ciabatta bread. The Count seemed to enjoy it but we agreed that our favorites are the San Fran and the Napa. 


If you enjoy gourmet sandwiches as much as we do you should definitely check out Rybread if you haven't already done so.
