Amighetti Special
The Amighetti Special from the Amighetti's Café and Bakery in St. Luis, MO, this sandwich provides a taste of Italy and homemade taste from the home-baked bread and the decadent array of fine meats, cheeses, and condiments. Apart from the fine assortment of ingredients, this sandwich stands out with its special sauce: Amighetti's tangy sweet house dressing. Although the recipe is here to be made, it's "Often Imitated, Never Duplicated", as would imply their house motto.
