slightly too much lettuce

would still eat

If I've been out all day I'll sometimes grab a vito from potbelly, or a gargantuan with peppers from jimmy johns. It's been a couple of months though.

>>5735853
can never be too much lettuce. also that is peppers and pickle mixed in, not all lettuce.

>>5735874

I see the pickles and peppers. I don't like super thick sandwiches and lettuce often adds unnecessary girth. I do like lettuce on my sandwich but not too much pls

The Boston Brute from Boston Pizza is pretty tasty.

I also love the big panini sandwiches they have at the Italian grocer near me.

Recently I've been enjoying a cold cut meat grinder sandwich with some sauerkraut and spinach.

I love a Gargantuan from Jimmy John's when I'm starving. Add some hot peppers, a Coke, and some salt & vinegar chips and it'll satisfy my hunger.

I've got a method of testing new sandwich places- I order their Italian sub. If it's good, I will usually be happy to go back to the place. If they can't make a decent Italian sandwich, I don't go back unless there are no other options.

The "Fat Sandy" from Munchies 420 Cafe in Siesta Key. It's a sub with 2 cheeseburgers, mac and cheese, onion rings, the works. Don't get it if you ain't hungry.

Italian with oil, no tomato and crushed cherry peppers.

Reppin Car-Mira's Deli in PA

I hope you are being sarcastic. because if this place and sandwich exist I am mad.

Mad that it exists, or mad that you haven't been to it?

>>5735894
Lol 420, so epic cool and edgy

>>5735991
You sound upset. You also seem to think that I care about the name or theme. Simply naming the restaurant/bar that the sandwich was located at. Go suckle on your mom's tit for some milk, because baby obviously didn't get any today.

Fuck me, OP, good sandwiches ("grinders") are a way of life here in Connecticut. There are lots of good local sandwich shops, and even the biggest regional chain, Nardelli's, far outclasses anything you'd get from Jimmy John's or Quizno's.

My favorite grinders are the gigantic ones that you find around Hartford. There are three main places in the city for that: Franklin Giant Grinder, Maple Giant Grinder, and Corner Grinder. Best ones to get are the chicken cutlet / chicken parm, meatball / sausage / sausage-and-meatball, and the Italian-style ones with lots of spicy cured meats like capicola, salami, soppressata, etc.

Pictured is a chicken parm grinder from the Wethersfield Pizza House. That's not a custom order - that's how cutlet sandwiches are done here, with several thin cutlets layered on top of each other. All breaded and cooked onsite, no processed garbage.

If you're really passionate about sandwiches, come to New England. We'll take care of you.

>>5736399

Also, just to clarify, what you see in the first pic is a half OF a half-sandwich. Here's an entire "half" from Franklin. You don't get a "whole" of these things unless you're sharing, you want leftovers, or prior experience tells you that you can in fact finish it all.

Not all grinder shops serve up such massive portions, but, contrary to what one usually expects from restaurants, quality is NOT sacrificed for the sake of quantity. These sandwiches are huge and also amazingly delicious.

If you live on the east coast, and you don't shop and eat at Wegmans, just kill yourself.

The one time I had Jersey Mike's (it's not in a convenient location for my daily routine) it was pretty good

>>5736399
>>5736408

jesus, that looks fucking beyond amazing. I've heard the term grinder thrown around but assumed it was just another word for sub or sandwich, those look based as fuck. I just ate a sub I made and am hungry again.

why aren't these a popular food like meme tier philly cheese steak?

i like the 10 and 11 from Jimmy Johns, and the oven roasted chicken breast with lettuce and either shredded cheddar or pepper jack, toasted with lots of southwest sauce. at home i like a thick as fuck cajun turkey breast sandwich on rye or pumpernickel with lettuce and tomato and franks hotsauce

Publix chicken tender sub

repping Busy Bee in San Pedro.
if ur ever on the coast of the LA area, u have to stop in. get the belly buster with BBQ chicken and Italian sausage.

>>5736458

TRUUU

One opened in my area a couple years ago and it shits on everything else. Everything there is amazing.

I went into a Whole Foods and hated it. It is like a worser Wegmans and 100 times more pretentious.

Sorry m8, but Nardellis is overpriced and also shit.

If you "have" to get a chain, especially in CT, you go to Dibellas.

Dat everything bread.

Pastrami from Togos.

>>5736633
bullshit, even jimmy johns is better than subway

>>5736715
rednecks used to talk about those on /sp/ all the time

Any good places in Toronto?

>>5736867
CT fag here...you are correct. The other guy is mostly correct too though. Nardellis is outclassed out out-bargained left and right but not by Jimmy John's, Quizno's or Blimpy's.

Once I got a large prosciutto, lettuce, tomato and mayo...cold...from Franklin. I'm pretty sure my health declined immediately after eating that and it was certainly worth it.

pork belly banh mi.

>>5736910

All 3 of those chains you listed are also shit.

Quiznos used to be GOAT but is now barely passable.

>>5736928
as far as national fast food chains go, Quiznos is well above average

>>5735829
Banh mi, typically the house special with saigon style bacon and house made pate. Favorite chain is probably "Best baguette".

>>5736867
Dibellas doesn't even do cutlets or sausage.

>>5736543
>subway is the worst place to get a sandwich.

I've been to better sandwich shops, but I've sure been to worse, too. In comparison, Subway is pretty decent as far as sandwich shops go.

So far the best on the east coast and definitely most unique has been Black Sheep in Richmond Va. The sandwichs are huge and fucking delicious. They call them "Torpedoes" and they're like a foot and a half long. I've had the lamb and steak and both were fantastic.

On the West coast and probably my favorite sandwich place in the country is a place called Red Buffalo in Oakland, CA. They have the best cheese steaks I've ever had in my life. They're nice and juicy with melty cheese and just the right amount of bread. They also have variations of traditional chessesteaks, like the Hoagie Cheesesteak with mayo, lettuce, and tomato, and the South St. which has bacon and garlic.

And as far as chains go, I think I'd have to go with Which Wich. I've only ever seen em in college towns. It's definitely worth checking out if you see one.

>>5737565
They also have po-boys but I haven't tried em.

>>5736461

Then you haven't had real sandwiches and I feel sorry for you. This is Jersey Mike's. Fucking look at it. That's a lettuce sandwich.

I like potbelly's but I don't really eat at chain sub shops that much.

>>5737533

Dibella's is good for coldcuts but yeah their hot options are pretty limited. Nardelli's cutlets, meatballs, and sausage & peppers are far better than anything Subway/JJ's/etc. puts out.

Here's an eggplant-and-meatball grinder I had from Franklin recently. I didn't like eggplant as a child and I'm sure it's because I didn't have it prepared properly. This eggplant was breaded and roasted and was absolutely delicious.

Jersey Mike's is shit.
Jersey Giant is better.

My best local for hot sandwiches isn't a sub shop, it's a torta joint called Don Pepe. The sandwiches are as obscene as anything in this thread, and weigh the greater part of two pounds. Pic related.

>>5737796
>Subway
Nice bait. Subway a shit. I have no idea how they manage to utterly fuck up something as simple as bread, but they do. Worst bread I've ever eaten. Hot dog buns from the grocery store are better than the shit they bake in their stores.

>>5737565

Airport sandwiches =/- sandwiches from a sandwich shop

They overcharge you at airports because you can't go anywhere else, any sandwich I buy at gregg's or a local cafe is most of the time delicious.

>>5738005
>Greggs

I've heard people speak wonders of that place for fucking years and never been to one. Then I finally did about a month ago. Got a small sausage roll that cost a whopping £1 and an incredibly disappointing, soggy chicken roll. How this place got so popular, especially with minimum wage chavs, is a mystery to me.

>>5738011

Sounds like its just you having these bad experiences.

>>5738005
Pret a Manger is like airport sandwiches even when you're not in an airport.

I like Greggs for a sausage roll when I'm in the mood for total trash. But they're not too hard to beat. I remember finding a mom and pop joint in Glasgow that sold a roll nearly twice the size of Greggs', and better tasting for 75p. Then again, if you can't find a deal in Glasgow you're not trying very hard.

Anyone ever been to Ike's sandwiches? It's a small chain around the country that has a shit ton of different sandwiches. It's definitely messy but its GOAT drunk or high food. Their bread is great too.

inb4 shill, I genuinely think it's the best sandwich shop I've ever been to.

Whole Foods has some good sandwich options. Pic related.

uncle willie from graham avenue meat and deli in greenpoint is a really good sandwich and the joint looks like butcher shop from a cartoon

>>5735829
They sell sandwiches at the high school I went to, boars head meats and shit. $4.00 a sandwich, but I got free lunch so I got to eat a sandwich daily. Free sandwiches for four fucking years.

I love sandwiches. Some of the regulars I got were either Ham with Provolone, shredded lettuce, pickles and mayo or Bologna with american cheese, mayo, and shredded lettuce.

i work at jimmy john's and please kill me.

>>5737827
Subway just has issues with quality control in its bread which is made in house at thousands of different locations.

I will fully admit that it is utter shit sometimes, but sometimes its really good too... So long as you are looking for that soft overly commercialized white bread mouth feel...

They aren't pretty coming out of the paper, but if your in southern Michigan this place has the best stuff you can find.

I used to work there and would eat those little chicken salad sandwiches all the time. Overall I like sandwiches better but at whole foods I favored the wraps because I'm a faggot like that.

>>5737927
>pole and line caught tuna

who gives a fuck, its tuna salad. why would you even try to catch tuna with a pole commercially? seems incredibly ineffective but whoever has the job as the catcher has the best job in the world.

>>5737796

>>5737704
I just had fat sals at their new place in austin. I grabbed the fat sal. Tastes like fatty friend breaded horseshit. Place sucks donkey dick.

Honorable mention is the Cuban at Alamo.

Fucking love non chain subs places
The quality of the mayo, and bread is fucking god tier and I wish I could make that shit at home

Bob's Subs in Richmond BC.

I don't know the name of the place, but there was this place in Yokosuka that did the best subway sandwich I've ever had.

The bread was real soft, and they tore out some of the insides to make room. They stuffed it with a mixture of tuna, tiny shrimp, corn, shredded cabbage and radish mixed in with lots of mayo. So fucking good.

I would take a perfect sandwich over a perfect steak about 9 times out of 10. Such the best invention

I-I miss you so much

Last Night I ordered two sub.
I arrived home, I and my friend ate Subs, half hours later, we pooped. In the morning we got pain head. That is MSG in Meat.

>>5740147
its not as bad as everyone is making it sound. i mean its not great, but its ok. if you enjoy subway or other chain sub shops, theres no reason you shouldn't enjoy jimmy johns also

>>5740147
idk. I worked there in the spring, grew to detest it pretty quickly. A few others here have expressed similar sentiments. Only one kind of cheese, 3 slices bacon = 2 dollars extra, lots of junkies working at the location I was at and so quality of service was running downhill. When we take out the meats and slice them they look and smell repulsive, luckily everything is measured to measly decimal-specific proportions and slathered in so much mayo (if you get "reg"). Personally I liked certain subs (beach club, italian night club), it's mostly the ridiculous salt content and potentially shit service that gets me. Expect tons of lettuce. Order an unwich if you wanna cut carbs.

>>5740147
Get the #5 Vito with extra onions and a sweet tea

No.

Potbelly is fine, I tend to grab Italian there.
Jimmy Johns has at least 4 places in my area but 2 are terrible which makes me sad because they are the ones close to me.
Panera's veggies are good but only at the one near my high school.
The Subway near me must be a front for somebody or something because I've gone by it for 8 years now and nobody but the staff go in there.
The best place though is a mom-and-pop run Jewish deli, everything but the prices are unbeatable.

I don't think you're in any position to call anyone juvenile with an attitude like that.

I just recently discovered that the Sprouts by my house has a deli counter that does sandwiches for $3.99, they're excellent, but I don't have a photo.

I like Jersy Mike's but they're not very hearty. Tasty though.

I'm one of those faggots who really likes Quiznoes, even though they're expensive, but there aren't any near me.

There's a new deli called The Brick nearby I haven't tried yet, and another deli really close to me, but they're in the snooty downtown area and their sandwiches are like $7 and they're only ok.

>>5735829
This Vietnamese supermarket makes incredibly good bahn mi. The bread isn't baked on site, but it is baked fresh and trucked in every morning from a bakery about 20 miles away. All of the ingredients are super fresh, prepared with genuine skill by grumpy little Vietnamese women, and served to a highly appreciate and mostly Vietnamese customer base.

It's also fun to walk around the store and look at all the weird as products for sell while eating your sandwich. There's a really neat boba tea shop in the same building. I sometimes go there first to get a banana smoothie with tapioca pearls before getting my sandwich.

>>5741228
Also.... they sandwiches are $2.15 after sales tax is applied.

It's an absurdly tasty, wholesome, and thrifty dining option.

>>5741228
>>5741234
That looks super weird and tasty, like the /ck/ equivalent to a weird boner or a fear boner. I used to live behind one of those asian markets when I was a kid. I remember kind of liking the overwhelming fish smell.

>>5741242
Not all are that "weird" the ones here in WA are never like that. More like
Baguette
Mayo like spread
Choice of meat
Pickled Carrots
Cucumber
Cilantro

Never seen that pork ear, pork liver shit on there

>>5741242
The picture in >>5741234 is only one type of bahn mi. They all have the jalapenos, pickled carrots and daikon, cucumber, and cilantro. But you can choose what kind of meat you want. The place I go to offers your choice of roast pork, grilled pork, chicken, bbq pork, tofu, anchovy, fried egg, or the "weird" cold cut combo seen above.

I usually get the cold cut combo or grilled pork as seen in pic related.

>>5741245
The pork ear is ground up and mixed with the ham at the factory, it's not like an actual pig ear in the sandwich. The pork live pate is fucking delicious to the max.

>>5741234

Banh Mi is the shit. Literally perfection. The crusty baguette, rich butter aioli and liver pate cut with pickled carrots and radish. The hint of cilantro and a little heat from jalapenos. Nothing overpowers, everything compliments.

>>5741259
>>5741245
I assumed the one in the photo was super stacked and most places won't just give you all that meat. I'm not into peppers, but sign me up for some pickled carrots, shit sounds tasty.
>>5741288
The Liver pate is what intrigues me, like a girl with a lazy eye.

>>5735829
i haven't really eaten in any other place than subway(apart from this like 7/11 type of place which also had theyir sandwich counter, it was in miami beach) so i'd have to go with italian bmt and subway, although that other place was better.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S--Kp3at4Q4

>I assumed the one in the photo was super stacked and most places won't just give you all that meat.

Actually that exact combination is a standard option at all the bahn mi shops in my area. It doesn't even cost more than simpler meat choices.

The best.

3 slices of bacon is not 2 dollars extra, but 5 slices is (or less, price varies by location--my store is $1.50)

JJ's is pretty good if you don't eat it too often. eventually the sandwiches all start to taste the same... it is the lack of variety, but fewer choices mean faster sandwiches and speed is the cornerstone of their brand. that's why they don't toast the sandwiches and why you might have a JJ's one mile from your house and they won't deliver to you. restricted delivery zones = faster deliveries.

shit, i've been working there for over 3 1/2 years and i still eat it every week. somehow. some tips: add cucumbers and hot peppers to the #9 to perfect it. tuna, bacon and hot peppers are awesome together, and sauce and oregano make it even better. leave off the tomatoes and cucumbers, though.

moar tips: we throw away ALL of the wheat bread we have left at the end of the night. it's a grade-A fucking waste, so i always take as much home as i can. go in around an hour to 30 minutes until close, and if the manager isn't some faggot he'll let you have some leftover wheat. just say it's for a good cause or ducks or something, and it might help to buy a sandwich if you were hungry anyway.

also the gargantuan is over-rated. fuck that thing, it tastes like so many different things it goes full circle into tasting like nothing.

The only reason I go to Subway is for the seafood and crab sandwich (I think they call it the "Seafood sensation" now, like anyone actually believed there was real crab in there). Your meats are absolute crap but I love your surimi.

Though I probably wouldn't get it at your store. If he offered it at all, your owner would probably let it go off and still sell it.

>>5742797
Would fucking devour. Those pickled turnips are calling out to me.

>>5742834
Yeah, that's why it's one of those "opt in" items that Subway doesn't even advertise on their website. In my region, people love it, so there are a lot of Subways that carry it. That also means it doesn't sit around as long. Fewer people buy it than other sandwiches but it does sell. I've never detected any "off" smells or flavors from the surimi at my Subway.

I'm Vietnamese but I really have to go with the based reuben.

They're alright but way way overpriced.

$10 for a sandwich and chips? Get the fuck outta here.

>>5742856
I was just employed in May and we already stopped serving it before that so I know nothing about it other than my coworkers telling me how gross it was to prep and how it didn't even taste good

>>5742848
awesome, I just moved to charleston. any more recs?

Banh mi is 1A, Reuben is 1B, torta cubana is 1C
Cuban is 2

>eat a normal sandwhich
>get tired of the flavor halfway through
>add something crunchy to the sandwich
>suddenly it's a blast from start to finish to eat and the flavor never gets old

Can anybody explain why this happens?

>>5742872
god damn, Anon ... i don't even know where to start ... i was (sadly) only there 3'ish days, so i was only able to gluttonize the city within reason heh ... but my short list would be ...

Taco Boy
Poogan's Porch (excellent low-country cuisine, all supposed to be farm-to-table dining)
Hominy Grill (i know they've become media darlings in the past few years, but they do live up to the hype)
Magnolia's (great place, but IMO not as excellent as everyone claims they are)
Butcher and Bee

and you'll def wanna hit up the farmer's market in Marion Square on Saturday mornings ... excellent local meats, produce, crafts, etc and great food vendors

>>5742886
It's probably the salt on the chips.

>>5736399
Fuck. /ck/ I need somebody to point me in the direction of a recipe to make something similar to this.

>>5739582
Agh forgot about coppolas.
They are fucking delicious but you're bitching about price and coppolas is practically the same price. Fuck they have this sandwich, I think it's called the south side, but it's basiscally a ruben with pastrami and corned beef, fucking godly.

>>5739081
If you dig ethiopian food, ot wanna try something different, try the Nile. It's fucking delicious and the beer selection there is fucking fantastic. I used to work there before I moved(fuck I miss that 50% off discount) Also Thai Diner Too is fucking amazing and pretty cheap. Try the Drunken Noodles with the flat noodles, it's fucking godly. Curry Craft is also good but expensive as shit. Uhm and yea Alamo is great, their bbq sauce is fucking amazing.

So I justt tried Penn Station the other day and I was fucking stoked. It was fucking delicious. The meat wasn't pre cooked and getting a "Philly" at subway would've been the same price. Anddd they have malt vinegar for your friesss

>muh nigguhs

my nigga from oklahoma, yeh?

>>5743870
yep, OKC in the house

>>5742661
>It's fucking 2 slices of meat, half a slice of cheese, and a pound of vegetables on shitty bread, what more do you expect?

Fixed that for you.

>>5741448
I'm from the bestwest, and subway doesn't even qualify as food. You take that back sir.

>>5742684
how ironic that the owner of my store is indian as well and gave me a"raise" of .25 after 5 months of asking. At least I get to eat shit tons of protein there.

Antones poboy extra chowchow

>>5742858
Reuben is better than all other sandwiches.

>>5745137
Fuck yeah, does this exist outside of Houston? Always figured they were local.

>>5745137

oh god fuck you

i moved to dallas from houston and i miss it so much

send me some chow chow, please ill pay for shipping

>>5745149
If I go to a deli or someplace with a 'sandwiches' section on their menu, i always go based reuben. It's messy, but so worth it. I would gorge myself on corned beef if i could.

Publix roast beef sub on wheat.
They will slice the beef while you watch if you ask. I get to see that it came from a real cow and how it is handled and that was not trucked from three states away last week.

I make my own sandwiches because I'm poor. Why would I pay someone to put things on a piece of bread for me?

I used to eat at subway strictly for their 5 dollar monthly footlong specials. But now they dropped that deal and it's a 6 dollar foot long special now. Fucking nope. haven't stepped foot in a subway since.

Any good sandwich places in Calgary AB (preferably in the SW)? Spolumbo's just isn't doing it for me.

>>5742916
It's literally fried chicken culets on bread with marinara and provalone or mozz

>>5746364
and roasted peppers. don't forget the roasted peppers.

$3.75 from saigon sandwich in SF

>>5736527

>sloppy, slippery mess
>may as well shit a bunch of re-heated rubberized chicken and whatever "HOUSE OMFG MADE ON SITE DAILY" bullshit bbq sauce they use onto a pile of wet naps and call it a sandwich
>whole banana peppers laid the fuck onto the sandwich, no attempt at tucking or inserting them

Wow, do they literally load all that garbage into a potato gun and fire it piecemeal into a piece of paper stapled to the wall handing it to you?

I bet you eat that thing out of a fucking bowl without the use of your hands, too.

>>5748085

It is my constant inspiration knowing that my experience their taught me I could easily do much better than them

Sequoia Sandwich Shop in Bakersfield CA btw

Chipotle chicken from Panera without the tomatoes.

If you're in the Greater Cleveland area, Slyman's has the most dank corned beef sandwich in the country. Fuck NY fags that say otherwise. Too bad it's in the hood and closes at 2pm.

>>5740294
I'm in Maryland and there is one not 5 minutes from my house

>>5740294
2 in MA reporting in

>>5748202
Slyman's is great, I like it much better than the typical NY-style corned beef. Here's a local secret: waiting in line at Slyman's is for chumps. Go around the corner to Superior Restaurant. The corned beef is just as good but usually the wait is shorter.

>>5744569
Are you retarded? Even in that picture it has more meat than the $4.55 8".

>Hating subway because it's cool to hate the mainstream places and fap over your slightly more obscure food chains

Fucking hipsters, I swear to god.

It's like people that say a $2 whopper is "worse" than a $8 burger from some obscure hole in the wall that's only available in two states.

>>5748167
I've actually had that. Tasted good but it was small as fuck & overpriced

>>5748345
There is nothing wrong with Subway or Jimmy Johns. But every sub I've ever gotten from any other sub shop has been better than those. There is literally no reason to go unless you live in Nowhere town in middle America that only has McDonalds and Subways

>>5748565
Yeah, Panera tastes good but they charge you an arm and a leg. Usually I just go there to buy their tomato basil bread. I think they put crack in it.

>>5748345
Subway is objectively nasty tho

>>5748345
we should hang out

Is that corned beef? It looks gross.

A Danny's Favorite from Wegman's kicks the shit out of so many other Italian subs. Worth every damn penny for a large.

How much is E1 and 75p in real money? For comparison

>>5748605
Disgusting. I hate thick sliced meat.

>>5736715
Best fucking subs + across the board quality.

Rest of the store is overpriced.

>>5744569
what if i like more toppings than meat, faggot?

>>5748686
where you located? i fucking love wegmans. rochester here. gonna go there in a little bit to get some aged gouda and bread.

Wow, if you buy a sandwich every week that's 4 whole dollars your saving. You could buy 3 packs of gum with that.

>>5738047
Their Adam Richman sandwich is fantastic.

>>5749398
WOW, they have a sandwich named after that faggot?

>>5749399
Yeah, but it's actually pretty good. Copy-pasta ingredients from their site: Avocado, Fried Chicken, Ham, Pesto, Real Honey, Swiss

There's a small chain named Big John's in mid Michigan, they make decent subs. Their specialty is pic related, comes with banana peppers on the side.

It's pretty good.

>>5749795
Looks like a cheese steak made with the wrong bread and no cheese

>>5738554
Subway worker here, I can confirm this.
The bread definitely has potential, but it isn't realized because the stores are staffed by students trying to pick up a few bucks and twenty-somethings that are spinning their wheels. If you actually pay attention to the bread from the point you take it out of the retarder to the time when you take it out of the oven, it comes out legitimately good.
Unfortunately this is lost 95% of the time because there are myriad other things that need taken care of and ensuring that the bread is warmer than 50 degrees but doesn't go over 55 degrees prior to proofing while dealing with customers and various veggie prep just isn't a priority. When I'd take the time to make the bread good, it'd be good. But when most other people (including myself on a bad day) tried to make the shit, it'd come out absolutely awful. Plus it doesn't help that the timing standards the company provides are utterly shit; a little experimentation on my part found even better timings.
At the end of the day, you're better off going to a little sub joint. But Subway's breddy solid a lot of the time and doesn't deserve being shoved completely off the table. Just most of the way off.

>>5749800

it's an italian beef you fucking foodcasual

Chicagofag here.

I still remember my first time having potbelly's. My girlfriend was coming into union station and her train was delayed. Walked around, feeling hungry, a couple blocks away theirs the charles schwab building on the river. See a sandwich shop first floor, lunch rush is just leaving. Enjoyed it, to be honest the bread was a little overcooked that first time but subsequent times at different locations it was much better.

However, I used to live in both New York and Cleveland. Back east the deli's were on a whole other level. Cleveland was messed up because I asked around the locals for the best sandwich shops and they all referred me to garbage. I finally found this little cornerstore deli in Lakewood, can't remember the name, that became my regular joint, even thought I lived in strongsville. Slyman's was pretty good too.

New York (upstate) was absolutely carpet bombed with mom and pop deli's and a good 3 out of 5 of them were awesome as hell.

However, if you take 94 W out of chicago, you find this little city called Kenosha. My cousin lived here. They have this place called Mac's Deli, and this place was straight up Seinfeld's soup nazi joint. Best damn sandwiches I've ever had in my life, but they will refuse service if you stand in line and don't know what you want when you get to the counter. My first time I got kicked out. My cousin convinced me to go back. Mouthgasm, my bros. Mouthgasm. I still drive up there once a month at least to get either an italian sub or a bomber.

amazeballs. http://www.macsdelikenosha.com/

Cows don't have nationalities. They're just cows.

>>5735829
anything Italian or put on a Hawaiian roll

Any of y'all ever been to which which? You can customize the hell out of your sandwich and its actually really good.

>>5750471
>Its some shit from the midwest!

Yea nobody from the parts of America that matter should be expected to know anything about the middle part of America since it really doesn't matter except for being a good location to produce the food needed for the people changing the world.

>>5751308
u wot m8?

If your drunk and too far away from a Wegman's, a steak sub from Jim's Steakout is pretty godly. I always ask for extra peppers though. Vinegar on a sub is just too fucking good, idk why though.

>>5751308
>not liking the Midwest
lol, enjoy your poverty and crime

>>5751541

Wonder if there are any fellow Quad-Citians here to testify to this place. Some of the best sandwiches in the area, far better than Jimmy John's.

>>5736399
How do you eat that?

>>5753441
Very carefully.

Bretty good for a subway sandwich. The trick is to use only the few ingredients that aren't shit.

I still haven't found a good sandwich in Ohio. Lived in Vermont for 20 years, and could get absolutely KILLER Italian grinders from the local deli. I miss that place like crazy.

Any Ohioans got a recommendation? I'm near Dayton, but we're always looking for a road trip.
