Holding the summit: a finished composition
Each bar is one pillar of the score, 0 to 100. The tick marks what a sandwich at the summit needs; an amber bar is the one holding this sandwich back.
grilled ciabatta roll, toasted: marinated grilled chicken; sun dried tomato tapenade; herb aioli; spring mix; vinaigrette.
Much of this build is inferred from the name; the score is a reading, and it stays out of Inverness Park Market's typical score.
Worth a look: ingredient not in the pantry: Sun-Dried Tomato Tapenade.
