Now that you have more time to make the trip to Chisos Basin, stop in Marfa and try this sandwich our Axios Austin colleague Nicole recently enjoyed on a weekend getaway.
The real highlight of her West Texas trip was a sandwich. Here's her dispatch.
Dig in: We grabbed lunch from Bordo, an Italian deli in Marfa, which makes sandwiches on their own wood-fired, in-house sourdough bread.
I can't stop thinking about that day's special: a roast beef sandwich with a creamy horseradish sauce, arugula, lemon, basil, topped with shaved parmesan cheese.
Their menu changes frequently, but I have no doubt that it's all delicious. We sampled three other sandwiches and loved them all, along with fettuccine alfredo pasta.

Quick review: So good, we ate it twice.
📍 If you go: Bordo serves lunch Thursday through Sunday, 11am-3pm, or while supplies last.
The shop usually has a line out the door and sells out of sandwiches fast. It's worth getting there when they open.
