Served on a [buttery French baguette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/french-dip-sandwich), this new sandwich will make you feel as though you're dining at a chic Parisian cafe. Jimmy John's new Frenchie sandwich is the latest addition to the chain's value-priced menu, which means that the sandwich is pre-made and only a limited number are available each day. In terms of the contents, the Frenchie sandwich consists of a simple, but sophisticated, combination of all-natural salami and capicola deli slices, hand-sliced provolone, and a bit of [salted butter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unearthed-croque-monsieur), all served on a long baguette. Just as the name suggests, the sandwich takes inspiration from the butter sandwiches of France, like the beloved *jambon-beurre*.
