Many pounds of cold cuts and cheese we have consumed here and continue to love it. THIS is how the hoagies of my Philadelphia upbringing were in the 1950s.
Order your hoagie with the oil and vinegar rather than the mayo, etc. and you have an original. I remember my parents coming home with those butcher paper wrapped sandwiches, oil stained and smelling so yummy. My mother would open them up, slice them into portions and we would sit at the table using the butcher paper for our place mats.
A very nostalgic munching down the gustatory lane to be wiping the oil off of your chin and accepting that what you are wearing is heading to the laundry.
Wife had a BLT the other day and watching the assembly the "chef" grabbed literally a hand full of crisp bacon and mushed it on to the roll. Oh my goodness! None of that two skimpy slices. Heck, this is JERSEY, macho land, eat large. No fru-fru allowed.
Specials each week on one or more of the hoagies. Park right by the building. To-go is just fine. Prices reasonable. Frequent eater card. Super friendly staff that are happy you are there.
