Café Loftus

Compared to the peanut butter and jelly sandwiches eaten by the cool kids at Café Loftus in Center City, the pb&j I ate yesterday, today, and will probably eat tomorrow is a sandwich for nerdy wallflowers.

Mommy never spreads Nutella or Fluffernutter on my peanut butter sandwiches. And I certainly never get sliced pear, cherry jam, and pistachio butter sandwiches in my lunch box.

Leave your lunch box at home so you can go out to eat one of the gourmet pb&j sandwiches at Café Loftus. Just don’t tell mom.

Finally had a chance to try this one today (I've been meaning to for literally months, but it turns out they don't serve the sandwiches on weekends). Anyway, I love love loved the pear pistachio sandwich, that was definitely a winner. Now I'm on the hunt for some pistachio butter. Any thoughts?

PFHR - I haven't purchased or sought out pistachio butter, but my first instinct is to try a health food market or Whole Foods. If no luck there, you can make it. I just found this recipe, but I'm sure there are more out there.
