Market M22’s Reuben

Tastemaker
By Anna Faller | May 27, 2023

As the old saying goes, we eat first with our eyes. This week, we’re inviting you to the visual feast of Market 22’s sandwich bar. Opened in 2013, this corner deli and eatery has all the charm of an Up North retreat and more freshly-sliced meats than we can count! Our current obsession is the classic Reuben. Featuring your choice of protein (we love the house-brined corned beef, but you do you), each sandwich begins on Detroit-style rye with a generous stack of cold-cuts or veggie-based tempeh. From there, it’s topped with Swiss cheese, crunchy sauerkraut, and a schmear of homemade Thousand Island dressing, before a quick toast seals the deal. Served with a pickle spear and a side of Better Made potato chips, this decadent handheld tastes even better than it looks. Don’t forget an award-winning Reuben pizza for the road! Sink your teeth into a sandwich at Market 22 in Maple City (497 E. Harbor Hwy). (231) 228-6422, market22mi.com
