Roast Beef Sandwich at Dickson's Farmstand

The fiancee wanted to see the Chelsea Market and I was happy to oblige.  Its a pretty cool place with a collection of restaurants and food stands.  Plenty of good options, but it was lunch time and I only wanted something quick, so I chose a sandwich at Dickson's Farmstand, a nice meat market that sells locally raised meat.  I was initially disappointed when I learned that the sandwiches are pre-made and already wrapped, which I assumed would mean that the food would not taste fresh.  I was wrong.  The roast beef sandwich was fresh and delicious, and the sesame bun wasn't soggy.  Rare pieces of meat, covered in a horseradish mayo, and some kind of pickled vegetables.   The place obviously prides itself on putting out high quality meat, and it was, but the mayo stole the show.  It did not overpower and it lingered long after the sandwich was gone.
