A favorite sandwich is smoked kippers on toasted pumpernickel with cream cheese, sliced red onion, avocado and a dash of hot sauce.

Yum.

seems like a simple sandwich to make on your own.

$9 for cat food? LOL. It is an interesting sandwich from both a flavor and texture perspective. Not sure about the pickled eggs (soft-boiled would be better), the capers are pickled enough. It would def not be good as a warm sandwich, just as a chicken salad tastes better when cold. The focaccia would be a bit heavy and tough against the sardines, but that plays into the squishy texture I guess. I'd treat this sandwich along the likes of a Soft Shell Crab Po-Boy (hands-down my favorite sandwich btw) and skip the focaccia altogether. Not a parsley fan on sandwiches either (insert parsley joke here). A bunch of cilantro instead would have rocked it.

It's worse than cat food..............ITS FISH BAIT!!!!!

I'm with you, Woooosh. Focaccia bread is a poor sandwich bread with squishy texture ingredients. Nothing would stay put.

On the parsley, it isnt the sharpness of American parsley; looks like Italian flat leaf. That would largely disappear in all those other strong flavors.

Dave, if those red onions were slightly marinaded in a mild vinegar like rice wine or if there were capers on it, I'd be all over that. But it would seem to scream for a slight tartness to balance it out. Maybe your average bottled salsa picante (that is usually a vinegar blast) is doing that?
