and found this bomb ass sandwich spot…  If you want good TOP value on a sandwich in Vancouver then look no further than The Social in Gastown.  This inconveniently located spot (well pretty convenient if you live or work in Gastown) merks all other sandwich spots hands down.  The sandwich below is a half (feeds 2) and costs 7.50 with a bag of in-house made chips that are well seasoned.  For twice as much sandwich its only 10.00 (feeds 2 fatties) and an extra bag of chips is only $1.  They make several meats in-house as well and all the toppings are fresh.  Good selection of veggies and my only gripe would be that there was only one type of bread (focaccia) until TODAY!   They introduced…. TOMATO FOCACCIA!   The bread is a bit greasy but still delicious.  My suggestion is the Turkey/Sopprasetta with all the veggies (lettuce, tomato, roasted  veggie medley, onions, banana peppers, pickles) with aoli mayo and sriracha sauce.  Just to see you smile and enjoy yourself…
