The food tour continued today with a lunchtime visit to Torrisi Italian Specialties. It's a fairly new addition to the SoHo restaurant scene, but it's made quite the impression. The dinner menu changes daily, and the management is fairly strict on the no substitution rule. The space is pretty tight, so be prepared for a wait at either lunch or dinner. I can't speak for the dinner fare, but lunch was delicious.
For lunch, you can just walk up to the counter and order your sandwich. Everything smelled great and they were making the eggplant parmesan sandwich, but I went for creating my own. They have a standard collection of meats, and I created a mozzarella, roasted red pepper, and soppressata sandwich on a hero with a little oil and vinegar. Everything tasted quite fresh, though I do wish the bread was a bit crustier. It was a pretty standard hero roll with sesame seeds. However, it was a really satisfying sandwich.

Can't wait for day 3!
