A Sandwich a Day: Turkey Tonnato at Zoë

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.

The bad thing about turkey is that it often doesn't contribute much flavor to a sandwich. But the good thing about turkey is that, due to its mildness, it can take on plenty of stronger flavors. That's what it does in the Turkey Tonnato ($10) at Zoë, where thick slices of moist turkey breast are smothered in a more-or-less classic vitello tonnato–style sauce; tuna, caper, and parsley in a thick, olive-oily creamy sauce. On a baguette with peppery arugula, it's a lot more exciting than turkey sandwiches usually get.
