If you’re gonna do only one thing, you’d better do it damn well. And oh, they do, they do!

BYGGYZ, the brainchild of Dewey Dufresne (yes, Wylie’s father) offers delicious, bespoke sandwiches crafted with impeccable attention to not only the quality of the ingredients, but the flavor compatibility of the component fixings. Here, for example, is not merely a roast beef sandwich; rather, it is a BYGGYBEEF – warm beef slow braised in pomegranate juice, with melted American cheese, hot pepper mix, BYGGYCHUP (the house ketchup) and BYGGYVEG, their mix of pickled fennel, carrots, red cabbage, currants and mixed herbs with Xxollent sauce on a seeded semolina hero. A Scrabble player’s nightmare, perhaps, but a gourmand’s rêve érotique.

Their bewitching sandwichy artistry even extends to dessert in the form of a DUSCREAM sandwich: a split Du’s vanilla cake doughnut filled with spiced apple ice cream and rimmed with cinnamon-oatmeal crumble.

IMHO, BYGGYZ comes by their all-caps name honestly; head to 37-39 Clinton St, Manhattan and taste what all the shouting is about.
