A US magazine has declared France's jambon beurre—the classic ham and butter sandwich in a fresh baguette—the best sandwich in the world. The award specifically highlights the version from Le Petit Vendôme bistro in Paris, known for its charming retro decor and prestigious clientele. The sandwich is crafted using premium, locally sourced ingredients, including award-winning baguettes, fresh butter, and quality ham. Time Out confirms that this French classic can be found everywhere in France, but the emphasis on using the best components makes it truly exceptional.
Le Petit Vendôme is decorated in yellow and red formica, there are cheesy piggy banks everywhere, and obscene amounts of ham and sausage hang on the butcher's fangs.
They're made to order and prepared in front of you using Julien Bakery's award-winning baguettes, gobs of super-fresh craft butter and ribbons of ham straight from the bone.
If you could eat, feel and smell the City of Lights, this would be it.
For a sandwich this simple getting the best ingredients is crucial - a freshly-baked baguette, thick-sliced ham from the butcher and one of France's best butters.
