A Sandwich a Day: Oil-Poached Tuna from No. 7 Sub
In this great city of ours, one could eat a different sandwich every day of the year—so that's what we'll do. Here's A Sandwich a Day, our daily look at sandwiches around New York. Got a sandwich we should check out? Let us know. —The Mgmt.

Didn't you just review No. 7 Sub? you might be asking. Well, in the two months since we last stopped by this Ace Hotel sandwich shop, they've changed 80% of their menu. And we've got a new favorite: the olive oil poached tuna. There's a ton of fresh tuna crammed in here, poached until tender but firm, with crunchy haricot verts and fried shallots; the flavor recalls a Niçoise salad in a way we were quite happy with. Again, it seems that the best sandwiches at No. 7 are the simplest.
Up tomorrow: the strangest sandwich we've had all year.
