Reporter Food: Egg Salad Sandwich from Bread Basket in Oak Park
(Crystal A. Proxmire, Aug. 6, 2016)
Oak Park, MI – As I travel Oakland County in search of news, I also like to let my taste buds explore. Recently I had a craving for an egg salad sandwich, so I asked oc115 readers on Facebook where in Oakland County I might find a delicious one.
The repeated favorite was Bread Basket Deli. They have several locations in Metro Detroit, but I headed to the one in Oak Park
This was my first visit, but the menu was so intriguing I will undoubtedly be back.
I was surprised to see that the egg salad sandwich cost more than some other meaty items, but when the waitress brought it to the table I could see why. It was huge. And it was, hands down, the best egg salad sandwich I’ve had in my life.
Turns out it is a house specialty that is made fresh to order.
As far as egg salad goes, it seems pretty simple: more creamy than mustardy or vinegary, and without “the crunchy stuff” like celery or onion. The real difference, I think, is the freshness.
So if you are ever in the mood for a good egg salad sandwich, now you know where to get one.
Breadbasket Deli is located at Lincoln Shopping Center, 26052 Greenfield Rd, Oak Park, MI 48237.
