Best Sandwich

Sub? Hero? Hoagie? Grinder?  Some places specialize in the sandwich.  Others offer up new takes on classic preparations.  Whether it's lunch, bar food, or a late night snack, NYC is home to more better sandwiches than any city on earth.  Here are my favorites:

1. The Horseshoe, Smith & Wollensky [spice marinated filet tips, sauted onions, velveeta cheese on garlic butter grilled lobster roll bread]

2. The steak and cheese sandwich, Pastis [a crusty roll, sliced steak melted cheese and frisee, served with amazing frites on a wood platter]

3. Cuban Sandwich, Blue Smoke [really tied for the #1 spot, this is the best Cuban I've ever had! Lunch only]

4. Americanata, Sosa Borella [tuna melt with havarti on grilled country bread, also served with great fries]

5. Turkey Club, The Viand [a classic rendition with perfectly roasted turkey, best at the small Viand on Madison]

I did not include my top Chicken Sandwiches on this list.  Check them out here.

So I did not include a classic NYC deli sandwich.  Maybe I should have.  Maybe I will.  In any event, if you are craving pastrami or corned beef on rye, try Katz's.

I hate, hate, hate to say that Ted's Montana Grill has an awesome grilled chicken sandwich...but it does.  You can get it just about any way, but I recommend it with American cheese, bacon, and jalpenos...with their BLT Ranch dressing poured on it.
