Coventry Catering has experienced a growing trend which seems to extend beyond Upper Valley caterers and restaurants to criss cross the nation. This trend, the increasing popularity of sandwiches, is creating the number one food consumable, followed in second place by vegetables, believe it or not!

The sandwich has always been popular but it now reflects the changes in eating preferences to handheld foods – makes sense when we think about our craving for convenience and the need to multi task. The Nation’s Restaurant News  notes how a sandwich can be held in one hand while we drive, text or play computer games.

Chefs have become more and more inventive with every component of the sandwich. The breakout sandwich of the year, says Nancy Kruse of the Kruse Company, is the melt. It ties back to the demand for comfort, and the cheese makes it absolutely irresistible.

We at Coventry Catering thoroughly agree; our demand for our signature sandwiches has increased at least two fold over the past year. Keep it coming Upper Valley!
