The "Sailey Sandwich" @ JIMIS
Some of you guys have already had it, being that it debuted Feb 1st -(I'm so behind on these blog posts, SORRY).
The idea for the sandwich sorta happened through means of my photography. Before I started at my studio in East Williamsburg, I used to shoot on the streets of Dumbo, Bk. I would meet my models and team in front of "JIMIS" before every shoot, and we would discuss the concepts and etc, in the front cafe tables.
After a weeks of shooting I kinda got sick of their menu, so I started to mess around with some things on their open deli. After a few months of messing with flavors I came up with the perfect sandwich. Every shoot I would have 1, then introduce them to the models, and style team I would work with. And after awhile it actually became a local favorite, so the owner Simon and I decided it would make sense to make it permanent on the menu, and have a debut night at the Deli for the sandwich.
The Sailey Sandwich has chicken cutlet, or for the light version grilled chicken, swizz cheese, lettuce & tomato, mayo, and a special sauce, on a whole wheat bun. (And your going to want extra sauce!)
We did a publicity ad shoot with models/friends who were fans of the sandwich.
