Jambon-Beurre - A French national Treasure - a Sandwich, but not just a simple sandwich

It may seem like a simple ham sandwich, but the Parisian 'Jambon-Beurre' is one of the French capital’s culinary staples. The secret to its success lies in the combination of the best baguettes with top quality home-made ham and the best semi-salted butter.  'Jambon-Beurre' is one of France’s most popular snacks.

The best in Paris ( attested to by many Parisians) is at Le Petit Vendome brasserie, 8 rue des Capucines. Its a 'crush' to get in and be waited on ( you must have patience here) and for the sandwich its only for take out or eat at the bar( the best kind of fun).
