Yesterday my brother and I got together for lunch, and this time he wanted to go somewhere else for a change, as we usually go to the Sunshine Cafe. He suggested The Rush.
The Rush is a coffee shop located in the Prestige Hotel, and it serves sandwiches and a small selection of very good baking in addition to its coffee menu. It's owned by the guy who runs Adrenaline Adventures, a local tour & transportation company. I'd been there for lunch once and it was very good, I just can't remember what I had; I just remember the chocolate peanut butter bar - outstanding. The last time was when my friend J was here and she treated me to a chocolate peanut butter bar for my birthday. These bars are TO DIE FOR. They are unbaked and gloriously awesome. They are also $3.25.
After considerable deliberation on my part, I opted for the Chunkanini Panini: chunks of chicken, bacon, Monterey Jack cheese, caramelized onions, and roasted garlic aoli. DIVINE! It was huge, delicious - almost sinfully so - and totally hit the spot. It goes for $7.95 and was totally worth it.
My brother had the Chicken Caesar Wrap, which was also huge and filling and he loved it.
I think The Rush officially has the best sandwiches in town.

Both sandwiches look delicious!!! I think I'd vote for yours though.
Those do look good. I wanted a panini press because I love all the flavors smushed together...and the cool lines on the bread. The Rush reminds me a restaurant around here called Hopkins.
OOOOhhhhHHHH...that peanut butter bar...drool! And the chunkanini panini(great name) looks amazing, too!
The sandwich and the bar look fantastic! I love everything in the sandwich. Monterey Jack is my favorite cheese, especially when it has jalapeno peppers in it.
Sounds like you pick the right restaurant. sandwiches look scrumptious!
The panini looks yummy and that peanut butter bar heavenly!!
I meant to ask you...are you going to make your own badge? Something peopel put on their blogs that link to ReTorte? I don't know how you do that...
Pierce: what a great idea! I should do that. Perhaps I can use a photo...Hmm...a weekend project!
