A true foodie understands that there’s much more to a sandwich than a few pieces of bologna on Wonder Bread. That’s why the owners of the Black Tree Sandwich Shop, located inside Brooklyn’s Crown Inn, have spent plenty of time coming up with menu items that truly take sandwich making to the next level.Co-owners and veteran sandwich-makers Sandy Hall and Macnair Sillick vary their menu each week so that they can make the most of seasonal local produce, putting together masterpieces like the Fiddlehead Fern Sandwich and the popular Pig, featuring braised pork with brown butter apple sauce. Look for vegetarian and vegan options, too. Add to that a classic café ambience and a friendly crowd and you’ve got a gem among restaurants in Brooklyn – one that’s perfect for the customer who seeks something a little different.
