You are sitting at home watching TV, playing video games, reading, working, or studying when all of a sudden you feel your stomach calling out for food. You begin to think of how you can satisfy this hunger the easiest and quickest way possible. Most of us will pour a bowl of our favorite cereal or make some eggs, while others will make something else...something in between two slices of bread that is satisfying...GRILLED CHEESE!
Whether you just like straight up American on white or you like to be adventurous with your cheeses and bread we all love this classic childhood filler. I happened to have this very craving the other day and wandered over to a place that was said to be serving up variations of the classic grilled cheese. This place is Melt Shop in New York City.
As I walked up to this little shop on Lexington Ave. I was greeted by a very friendly young man who offered me the menu. What a selection! How will I choose? I ended up ordering their cheesiest sandwich, the Three Cheese Melt with gruyere, fontina, and goat cheese. I know you're thinking this was probably very rich, but to cut the richness they added homemade roasted tomatoes and put all of that on sourdough bread.
I also ordered their shop tots, which were delicious and crispy, served with their melt sauce. These tots were topped with parsley and pecorino romano, which I thought really brought out the flavor in the melt sauce.
In addition to grilled cheese, Melt Shop serves breakfast items like PB&J and for dessert they serve ice cream sandwiches. All in all, a solid place to relive some of your fondest childhood memories while also satisfying your hunger so be sure to stop by.
