The bun report

Put this date down, Sept. 30. That's when the sandwich equation in Lowell will rise to a whole new level. I got a sneak peak of Dharma Buns last night and what I saw, trust me on this, was a biz on the verge of success. If design can tell you anything (and it can) they have put some serious time and attention into the Market Street sandwich shop. Owner John and his PR son Alex have given intense consideration into their bread. The steak sandwich (made w/ sliced sirloin) will be served on a bun they went to great lengths to create. "There's a sandwich shop in Hoboken that makes the best rolls. We bought a couple, brought it to our baker and said, 'do this,'" Alex said.
This dedication outta be commended.
Belgian fries, cut and soaked overnight and flash fried, with go down nicely with Belgian beer. "Why carry what everyone has?" said John. Indeed. In keeping w/ the Dharma Bun theme, a mini bookstore selling Jack Kerouac books and the works of his beat buddies Ginsberg and Burroughs will be set up in the corner. Late-night hours, till 2 a.m. on wkends., couches, high-top tables and drop-lighting will be a nice addition to the downtown.
