Crab and Artichoke Sandwich
Growing up the Crab and Artichoke Sandwich from First Street Café in Benicia, CA was my families favorite meal out. It was inevitable that I make a copycat version now that they have closed down so that we can enjoy it for many more years to come. The combination of the creamy crab and artichoke spread over toasted bread with melted cheese is delicious and full of flavor.
