'The great sandwich experiment' has ended at Lord Hamm's

An EVG tipster told us yesterday that Lord Hamm's has been rather closed looking the last few days at 226 E. Third St. between Avenue B and Avenue C. The phone number is also no longer is service.

We reached out to the Lord Hamm's folks via Twitter…

The small space just opened on April 5. New York magazine called proprietor Corey Cova an "an undersung sandwich genius."

The reader who told us about the possible closure was a Lord Hamm's fan, noting it was a "really great addition to the neighborhood."

Lord Hamm's, now serving very large sandwiches on East 3rd Street

The takeout shop opened for business yesterday… an EVG reader happened by here at 226 E. Third St., between Avenue B and Avenue C and tried the smaller meatball sandwich ($8; the bigger one is $11) and couldn't finish it. (Said in a positive way, like the portion is quite large).

Lord Hamm's doesn't have a website yet, though there is a Twitter account. (Updated: Fixed the link.) Aside from four different types of sandwiches (for now), they are serving a spicy tomato soup.

New York magazine had a preview a few weeks back with sandwich porn here.
