On Tuesday (Aug 18) the sandwich team made its first group deployment in pursuit of sampling all the sandwiches listed on the "must have" sandwiches in Huntsville .

First up was the "fried bologna" at Lyn's on Whitesburg.

Pros:
  • While not a sandwich to "write home about", everyone agreed it was likely one they would eat again, but maybe not go in search of.
  • Lyn's is a pleasant venue that appears to not be the typical business lunch place.

Cons:
  • The sandwich seemed a bit pricey for the contents.
  • The acompanying pickle piece seemed a bit puny - could have gone for a whole spear...
In all, a successful visit. One mystery to be solved is the menu item for a "whole deviled egg". No one in our group was brave enough to order one so the mystery of how one stuffs a "whole" boiled egg without cutting it in half continues.

  1. Oh now, I have already written home about the Carl Jones Fried Bologna. Seriously. But I already suspected I liked it better than anyone else did. I do agree that the pickle slice is a bit odd, though--it would be nice if it came with chips or something.

    Fun lunch--I'm looking forward to next week.

  2. I had half a deviled egg - very light and fluffy. I suspect they make the whole ones through a complicated in-vitro devilization process that only Lyn fully understands.

  3. I was a bit skeptical about the concept of Fried Bologna to begin with but found that the sandwich tastes a lot better than it sounds.

  4. Best fried bologna sandwich I've ever had - well it's the only one. But it was good, especially with the fresh summer tomato. In fact, later that week I wanted another, so I made one just like it at home (but with ham).
