For years, before COVID and back when I worked in Leesburg, I frequently treasured going to South Street Under — especially in the Summertime when Gazpacho is one of the soup choices. Then, I would order the soup with half a sandwich. The soup was...always delicious and the half sandwich sufficient in size. These days, I no longer work in Leesburg and COVID is no longer a deterrent — so on a recent trip to Leesburg I thought of going to South Street. I ordered half sandwich and soup, as in days past. While the soup was delicious as usual, the size and contents of the half sandwich was half the size of the half that it used to be and the filling was scant. Just 2 small slivers of chicken, the thickness of a credit card and the size of my pinkie. The description of what was to be the day’s special sandwich listed several toppings that were to be on it, along with the chicken. Half of them were missing. The rest were barely present. When I voiced to the staff the fact that the sandwich portion of the order was unsatisfactory, I was told that it was what is considered the usual portion for a half sandwich. Truly, if I had chosen to do so, I could have finished it in one bite. That’s how small it was. And I have a small mouth. So I guess this is the new, “usual”. Also, the slices of bread that come with the soup was also credit card thin. Thinner than it used to be. So sad to see that South Street has gone south.More
