Sassano's Gourmet to Go and More - 21 Plank Ave., Paoli, PA 19301

This will be quick because I have to run out. I apologize in advance if it doesn't flow together nicely!
I met my husband today for lunch, and he took me to this gourmet sandwich shop where he and his co-workers often get lunch. This small shop was situated in a shopping center (The Depot Shoppes), and as it was already 2:45 pm when we arrived, there was no one in there. The location we were caters primarily to the lunch crowd; they close after 5 pm and aren't even open on Sundays (as we learned the hard way one weekend).
We had the turkey sandwiches, if you could call them that. To me, it was more like a slice of sandwich heaven. Sliced turkey, Applewood bacon, gorgonzola, and cranberry mayo were piled on a roll with lettuce and tomato. (I will post a picture here tomorrow.) The sandwich was perfect - not too dry and not too moist, flavorful but not overpowering.
To go with our sandwiches, my husband and I each got a bag of potato chips. I can't remember the brand; it wasn't a national brand like Herr's or Lays. Anyway, they were almost like homemade potato chips and were really, really, really good. I had the sour cream and onion; Kevin had the sweet BBQ.
One of the only quirks that I noticed was that they didn't have a trash can. We dined in, and though the dining area (a few tables and chairs) had a very quaint, country feeling to it, apparently they don't get a lot of traffic. So we took our garbage with us (the employees were all in the back once we paid for our food).
Not a bad place to try, and I would have loved to try another one of their sandwiches, or even soup. The biggest down side to Sossano's is the price: our sandwiches were $8 each.
Final Outlook: Recommend, if you have the money to spend
