The Grilled Cheese

Grilled cheese, such a simple food, but so delicious.  The very first version of grilled cheese that I could remember was made with 2 slices of white Wonder bread, and a slice of Kraft singles cheese.  Kraft singles cheese is the easiest to make grilled cheese with because it takes little to no heat to actually melt it.

This little sandwich shop in Kensington Market does things a little bit fancier, no Kraft singles on the menu anywhere.  I was actually overwhelmed by the choices available, so I asked the the guy that worked there what he would recommend.  He suggested the Grilled Motzy.  The Grilled Motzy had boccacini, sun dried tomato, basil pesto, mixed greens and vinaigrette sandwiched between 2 slices of toasted/grilled bread.  I should have stuck to ordering a classic version of whatever I want to try.  I'm sure this sandwich tastes great to some people, but it was horrible for me.  Boccacini did not add any flavour to the sandwich at all because it doesn't really have any flavour to begin with.  The vinaigrette with the combination of the sun dried tomato was overpowering, making it too sweet and sour.  There will not be a next time for this particular sandwich.  The grilled cheese came with a pickle that was pretty tasty, and pre fab chips from a bag that I didn't bother trying.
