I've heard this question asked and answered many a time. People's responses will often be tacos or burgers or ice cream. Which, don't get me wrong, are all delicious choices. However, I'd have to say that my answer would be a good old sandwich

Sandwiches, in my opinion, are some of the most versatile foods. You can have a sandwich for breakfast, lunch, or dinner; they can be savory or sweet; hot or cold; and basically be compiled with any ingredients that strike your fancy.

My favorite item off the menu is the pork Bahn Mi. It's sweet, spicy, crunchy, and savory. A ton of people also recommend the brisket Bahn Mi, which I've had and is also very delicious. I just prefer the pork over the brisket. But to each their own!

Meat BBQ offers up sandwiches that showcase their amazing smoked and BBQed meats. My favorite is The Miyagi with cheese, which comes with"House Smoked And Pulled Chicken, Jalapeno/cilantro Slaw, Grilled Pineapple, Asian BBQ Sauce, Sriracha, and Gouda." But if you're looking for a challenge, might I suggest The Boss Log? It's absolutely huge and it comes with "Layers Of Pure Metal On A Bun In The Form Of Pork, Brisket, Smoked Turkey, Pulled Chicken, Bacon, Fries, House Gravy, Cheddar, ‘Merican and Pepper Jack Cheese, Hot Garlic Sauce, Jalapenos and a Sunny Side Egg."

Babe's Corner is this little sandwich shop that packs a lot of flavor in every sandwich. Plus, they offer a ton of variety for those who abide by a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle. My favorite is the Betty. And you can never go wrong with one of their delicious sundaes of the week.
