Not the same. I get both on a regular basis. Im missing something in my ingredients. I might run by there tonight. If I do, ill disect it and post it here. As well as eat it.
In no particular order: - souvlaki/kafta sandwich - club sandwich - jambon beurre - labneh w/olives (or w/mint & vertically slices small cucumbers) & arabic bread - cheeseburger
here are a few good ones in no particular order: La Madeline Chicken Salad Sandwich Rubens from Katz's Lengua Torta from Taco Rubia Bulgogi Bahn Mi from Vietnam Poblano Schwarma from Pheonicia Poboy from Good Co. Seafood (Antone's is decent) Barbecue Sandwich from Rudy's (or various other smokehouses)
I'm at the central market in south central austin (westgate). Unfortunately the cashier was unfamiliar with The Felicia. I ended up getting some southwestern chipotle steak sandwich. It was just okay.
Central Market's meat loaf sandwich is awesome too. I will say: their caramelized onions, while delicious, are sweet as hell and can overpower their sandos and make them taste the same. I'm glad there's not much Local Foods love in this thread. I don't get the hype. 3 different attempts...it's just mediocre, imo.
1) My Mom's Salvadorian Chicken sandwich 2) Bocata de Jamon from Barcelona 3) Reuben 4) Hotel style Club Sandwich 5) Grilled Cheese sandwich
First by type then by brand 1. The Rueben 2. Distant second the BLT 3. Chicago style hot dog with sauerkraut 4, NOLA Muffeleta tied with oyster poboy 5. Lox and cream cheese on a bagel Honorable mention based on the fact by my calculations I ate 20,000 of these as a kid. The PB&J Brand Kahn's Deli' combo Rueben no other Rueben has even come close The New Yorker from Kahns Deli. Corned Beef and Cole Slaw
Btw. I also want to say that this thread is not official unless cfent's and the Houston Press's authority on this subject chimes in FattyFatBastard And I'm pretty sure he will say The Monte Christo
Not Houston, but the best damn sandwich I ever had was Paseo's Caribbean sandwich in Seattle. Goodness gracious, i'd fly up there tonight for another one...
FattyFatBastard's picks 1. Fried egg sandwich at Max's wine dive, 2. California dreamin at Spec's, 3. Felafel at Zabaks, 4. Melted Veggie at Wesleyan cafe, and 5. Olajuwon Special at Kahn's deli. btw: I invented #5, no joke.
