The giant sandwich appreciation thread

[Malergion]

I love giant sandwiches. Just had myself the wonderfully delicious Banh mi, which is a Vietnamese concoction of pork, cilantro pickled carrots on a fresh baguette with various forms of dressing.

Wal-Mart premade sandwiches: big, cheap, bland.

Quizznos: Not big, and overrated.

Togos eh...

However, there's this place in the local WinCo called Leonardo's Pizza that serves hot grinders. They're huge and they rock.

OMG, I just finished my lunch of a giant sandwich myself!!

It's called "The Adin" and it's from this amazing NY-style deli in my office building.

Chunks of grilled chicken, Sautéed Onions, bell peppers, banana peppers and melted mozzarella on a wheat sub-roll.
Im oh-so-full now

I hate "big chain" sandwich places... only the local mom-pop places make

This place, 2 blocks from my house is THE BEST EVER,

"Yes, I'll take a Philly cheese-steak and 200 beers."

Fuck I just saw this:



EEEWWW!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Malergion]

As long as that place has Ephemere, I'll be happy.

Though I'd need a roast beef sandwich to go with the apple flavor.

This is close to what I had, but mine was bigger and on a different type of roll.

 

[Dead_Lioness]

Well, I picked a generic "sandwich name"

However, what if the person who made it is from Philly?

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

No. Unless it's made in one of the authentic cheese-steak joins in Philly, it's not a philly cheese-steak.

Sure it is. It's just spit free.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

No, I've had so called "philly cheesesteaks" from outside philly before (before I came to philly), and they taste nothing alike (actual philly ones are way better).

 

[Malergion]

I think I'll stick with the California imitation. I can't afford the airfare.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

It's almost worth it. A good cheesesteak is a glorious thing.

 

[Lordlucid]

I guess I'll have to fly my ass to Philly so I can masticate a "true" philly cheese steak sammich. I wont swallow unless its tasty.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

It's truly an American wonder.

 

[Lord Foul]

Yeah, so cheese steaks are disgusting, and Philly Cheez-Whiz specials are even more so.

I'll take a pita full of Shawarma-style meat and hummus over anything we call a sandwich in America any day.
