I prefer a hot sandwich so I put Subway above JJs but I never get Subway because they don't deliver.

If I'm getting in a car, I'm not going to Subway.

Jersey Mike's is far above in quality but I never go there either because....see Subway above.

Here is a rather large kielbasa for you to enjoy, dennis.

We'll just call that egg that you are wiping off of your face.

Wow,nobody likes Jimmy John's?

I enjoy the fact that their lunch meats taste deli fresh and not some packaged shit like a Subway sandwich.

I've never been a fan of any sub chain, except JJ. Gotta stick with mom and pop delis.

Mojo's in Downers has a real Philly with the Amorosos... I thought it was very good. Good fries too.

Yes, Mojo's is great. I wonder when these places say they fly in the Amoroso bread, are they getting frozen dough? I assume they aren't flying in already-baked rolls.

i had a really good cheesesteak at mad river back in 2010 during the stanley cup. i think they imported their bread from tony luke's, which is far superior to geno's or pat's.

i agree about the Jersey Mike's prices. and crowds on sunday afternoons are fucking ridiculous. have they finally stopped asking that godforesaken "mike's way?" every time you get to the fixin's? that always has driven me crazy.

there are some local delis that i frequent so i can avoid the chains.

Remember, life will kill you, but it's great to be alive.

When I lived in Evanston there was a Jimmy John's less than a mile from my house. One night I called for delivery and they told me to call the Skokie location which was about three miles away. After hearing their dumb commercials about fast delivery I was naturally infuriated. I actually wrote a letter to Jimmy himself. He pretty much told me to go fuck myself. I'm on permanent boycott.

This place sucks and is overpriced. They are friendly though.

I guy I know who worked for Jimmy John's alerted me to the fact that there is a giant hole in their coverage in the downtown (they call it uptown) Park Ridge area. For any of your entrepreneurs out there. Lot of offices and medium-density residential that would fall in that delivery area.

What's ordering a sandwich from Pitt Mike's like? Let's riff this out.

You are the only person I know who would do this. I think you're crazy, but I respect it.

In general, I don't understand why all sandwich shops have to be hipsterish. Jimmy John's has their cute little phrases and lists, and Potbelly's always has some guy who hasn't showered or shaved in a week blasting the guitar at the door.
