    This used to be true, but as with just about all eating-out experiences, quality has dipped.

    I am blessed to be from Jersey, and delis are a big part of our life here. Throw turkey, pastrami, swiss on the griddle, add mayo and lettuce on a Kaiser roll, and boom, great sandwich. But as of late, pastramis too fatty, turkey slimy, lettuce too wet, the sandwich slides itself apart.

    I’ll make a simpler sandwich at home. I essentially shave the turkey, skim coat of mayo. The sandwich stays together and that’s somehow now a metric for determining good sandwich.

    Tough times we’re in.

      I’m not saying you’re wrong but on a scale of blessed from 1 to 10 that’s like a 3.

      Local sub shop is divine and as required uses ac rolls. It’s lovely. Good pizza too. Not from them though. Just like. In the area.
