Message: [QUOTE="Hans Sprungfeld, post: 3207108, member: 181"] Checked back in and noted the recent posts that reprise people's favorite lists. All were within more than acceptable range, but this gives me an opportunity to note that I got a small bacon & cheese from BAR two weeks ago, my first from there since I moved back to New Haven 6 years ago, been there since its beginning, and largely a fan (just busy elsewhere with other old and many new). I was stunned that it simply was not good. The crust was stiff, no great pleasure in either crunch or chew, and no particular flavor to or from the dough. Maybe an off night, so unexpected. Bigger drop-off from expectation than my initial attempts with Fairfield & Mohegan Sun Pepe's, or my never quite warming to DaLegna. Barring a redemptive visit, this was with a local top dozen range. Again, very surprised. And fwiw, for the past 15 years, I've mostly gone with mashed potato & bacon. [/QUOTE]
