Bar Australia in La Orotava has been keeping sandwich lovers happy for years, with a menu that goes well beyond your average ham and cheese.
The star of the show is its special beef sandwich, packed with ingredients and clearly not designed for anyone counting lettuce leaves.
The Beef Sandwich Everyone Talks About
The special beef sandwich combines beef, cheese, bacon, tomato, lettuce, egg and alioli. Quite a line-up, but apparently it works rather well.
The real selling point is the beef itself. Customers say it’s wonderfully tender and so juicy that it practically melts in your mouth.
If beef isn’t your thing, there are plenty of alternatives, including chicken, pork loin and shredded beef sandwiches.
More Than Just Sandwiches
Bar Australia has built a name for itself in La Orotava, but sandwiches aren’t the only thing on the menu.
You’ll also find hot dogs, savoury croissants, burgers, toasted sandwiches and papas. So there’s a decent choice if you fancy something different.
