The chef said he “struggled” to decide what the city’s official sandwich should b,e with him first stating it should be “a bottle of Prime in white bread” due to Wakefield being famous for “that one corner shop and not much else.”

However, Big Nibbles ultimately chose to make a spicy lamb sandwich with homemade naan bread, pickled vegetables and a yogurt, honey and mint sauce.

He claimed people use Wakefield as an escape from the darker, more horrific parts of the northern belt, and that they deserve a sandwich that will provide that same escape.
