I'm not normally a fan of the club sandwich, but I couldn't resist today. I walked into Redwood Deli knowing I wanted two things: egg salad and bacon. It's as if I were pregnant and egg salad and bacon were pickles and ice cream.
I had a feeling Redwood might have something along those lines, since they have about 20 menus on display. They added another one recently — the "stimulus" breakfast menu, featuring pancakes and something containing acai berries. Eventually I found what I believe was called the Bacon and Egg Salad club, and of course ordered it.
Despite being tainted with hateful amounts of filler lettuce, I enjoyed Redwood's bacon-egg sandwich thing with pickles. The bread was toasted and the egg salad was plentiful. It occurred to me that an egg salad sandwich with bacon and toast is essentially breakfast for lunch. While I refuse to eat lunch or dinner for breakfast (see reheated pizza), I wholeheartedly support breakfast meals for all-hour consumption.
What Redwood's done here is lunchize a bacon, eggs and toast breakfast, and I salute them. If they invent a lunchy sandwich involving pancakes and bacon, hugs are in order.
Will I continue to pay $8 for four wedges of bacon and egg goodness centered by coleslaw? No. Will I seek a way to pay far less for a way to eat eggs and bacon together for lunch for cheap? Yes. Stay tuned.

Egg salad has never appealed to me, probably because I am not a fan of eggs... nor really of bacon. Oh well, I guess this sandwich is not meant for me. :) However, I WHOLLY support dinner for breakfast. Leftovers sometimes make the best breakfast. My sister even had a stint of eating Top Ramen for breakfast everyday... That was a little disturbing.
And I can't tell you how BAD I felt this morning after going out for coffee and paying $6!!!! Well, $6.09 to be exact. UGH!!! :(
Vanessa - If you don't like egg salad or bacon, I'm sure you would hate this sandwich. Oh god, no. If I don't have access to breakfast food, I just go hungry until lunchtime. Why was coffee $6? Was it gold coffee?
