Meat and Bread on Cambie Street in Vancouver has been one of the city’s most celebrated sandwich operations since it opened in 2010, building a focused menu around one or two perfectly executed porchetta sandwiches and the kind of single-minded sandwich quality that earns a fast-casual operation a national food media reputation. It appeared in Season 13, Episode 10 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Old Faves, New Craves,” which aired February 13, 2012. Guy Fieri found a Vancouver sandwich kitchen doing one thing — slow-roasted porchetta on house-baked bread — with a level of commitment and quality that makes the simplicity feel like a statement.

What to Eat
The Porchetta Sandwich — slow-roasted heritage pork with crackling skin, salsa verde, and mustard on house-baked bread — is the signature and the reason the menu stays focused. This is the sandwich that built Meat and Bread’s reputation and the one every first-timer orders. The Meatball Sandwich is the other rotating option that earns its own following. The Daily Soups are the accompaniment most regulars add. Check the website for the current menu — Meat and Bread keeps things intentionally tight and changes based on what the kitchen is focused on.
