Ask Lemmy

Mine's the Vietnamese bánh mì. Cucumbers, cilantro, pickled carrots and daikon, jalapeños, mayo spread (similar to Kewpie), paté, and your choice of meat, on a Vietnamese baguette. I prefer traditional cold cuts, char siu (xa xiu), or meatballs (xiu mai). And I always pay for extra paté.👌🏼

Toasted ham and cheese with quality ingredients. It's a tasty marriage of sweet sugar and salty ham, crisp toast and melty cheese.

Best one I made was when staying in Antwerp. I got the cheese in Amersdam - a truffle gouda. Butter was also dutch, from memory, but I can't recall exactly. Nice and salty. Bread was local - Suikerbrood. Sweet bread that browns easily. Ham was prosciutto from France somewhere.

Have to put the butter on the outside and pan-fry slowly to ensure the cheese melts. The If you don't have a sweet brioche bread, sprinkle sugar on the butter to get that crisp, sweet exterior.

For me it's a good Philly Cheesesteak.

The PB&Js your mom made and cut into quarters diagonally and brought out to you and your friends playing in the backyard when you were six. The ones with the toothpicks in them, indicating they have crunchy PB. Best after sitting for ten minutes so the jelly starts to leak into the bread a little bit. With a glass of milk.

Cuban sandwich.

Here in NJ we’re known for not only your traditional deli hoagies (or heros, subs, whatever you want to call them), but also “fat sandwiches”. They’re usually characterized by having a ton of greasy stuff loaded into them. My personal favorite is from a place in Princeton; the sandwich is called a Sanchez. It’s a chicken cutlet sandwich with a tangy orange sauce, mozzerella sticks, and French fries on it. Horrible for you, but it’s the ultimate drunk food. Rutgers campus is also well known for their fat sandwiches you can get from food trucks affectionately known as “grease trucks”

Muffaletta. No contest.
