No, Steve...as the saying goes, you're a day late and a dollar short!
The sandwich in question is a muffaleta...although I think I've "muffed" the
spelling of the thing.
There was a restaurant in Seattle which used to offer a Muffaleta Spread
with a basket of bread. It was sure good for anyone (like me) who loves
olives.
All these posts about ARSC and food make me want to sing "Do You Know What
It Means To Miss New Orleans?"
I was only there once, but I'll never forget it...a very memorable three
days back in 1985.
