Aside from just being one of the best restaurants in New York City and the financial district, Chopping Block also offers an amazing sandwich for vegetarians. I have lived in New York for many years and I know it’s not hard to find vegetarian restaurants in NYC.
We all know that Chopping Block offers some of the best sandwiches in the city, but we have come to know them for their slow roast meats like the brisket and roast beef. Some other sandwiches favorites include the Fuego, which I absolutely love, which is the spicy herbed chicken, avocado, cilantro, spicy chipotle mayo and other fresh ingredients between hot pressed focaccia bread.
So we know Chopping Block is great for the heavy meats and sauces. Customers can also choose to have a salad rather than a sandwich. The salad menu is the same thing as the sandwich menu, except the meats and spices are over a bed of fresh greens. Some salads do include other special ingredients that are not included in the sandwich.
Past the light eater, we go on to the vegetarians. We all have vegetarian friends, so it’s nice to know that a restaurant has dishes made specifically for them, and doesn’t have to taste like nothing. Chopping Block has one of the best vegetarian sandwiches in NYC, and that is the Eggplant Euro. That includes oven roasted eggplant, homemade roasted garlic hummus, roasted bell pepper, tomato, basil, red onion, and imported Greek Feta. This sandwich tastes amazing even for those of us who are not vegetarians and it even looks amazing! It can come in a salad or a sandwich, I prefer the sandwich. The layering of this sandwich (along with all the other options) is perfect. You get the right amount the ingredients in each bite.
This is great for food catering in NYC as well. This has become my go to restaurant for catering as we have vegetarians and people who like to eat a good sandwich or salad. I’ve run into problems with some restaurants where they only serve meat dishes, and the other items were just boring salads with some dressing. So whether it’s a retirement party, birthday party, or a holiday event, we have been ordering from the Chopping Block and the food has been consistently great.
Whether you’re a vegetarian, or you like your heavy meats, or you enjoy salads that are different, Chopping Block in the financial district is definitely the place to go.
