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.

While "Sam's Green Eggs and Ham" ($7) may be a somewhat precious name, it's nonetheless a mighty good sandwich. Served at The Perch Cafe in Brooklyn, it's a thin cut of spinach frittata pressed between two thin slices of white bread with ham and sharp, melty white cheddar. The egg itself isn't too prominent, just something soft and substantial in what is otherwise an excellent warm ham-and-cheese sandwich. Cute and colorful but sophisticated on the plate, it's a sandwich well-suited to the parents-with-kids who tend to crowd the Park Slope cafe. Though on the breakfast menu, it's served through lunch hours, too.
