Just Eat It: Shrimp Salad Sandwich at On the Fly

Delicious, and only $6.50.

By Christopher Werner October 4, 2010

 

There are maybe 150 shrimpies cramming into that baguette there. They’re of the bay variety, and they’re lathered with just enough dill-flecked dressing to give the guys a splash of sprightliness. The lengthy bow of bread is a reminder that the sandwich, even with its $6.50 price tag, is meant to satisfy the most eager of eaters.

The other offerings at On the Fly —several more sandwiches, salads, make-at-home meals—are also priced to move and maintain the stamp of Chris Keff, whose Flying Fish is right around the corner. She debuted this grab-and-go offshoot maybe two months back.

Smart ones will get to On the Fly before the lunch hour floodgates open. Otherwise you and a friend may mosey there, both with your sights set on the shrimp sandwich, and upon arrival discover only one remains. And that’s just a bummer.
