    Great stuff here! One of the few Thanksgiving-type sandwiches I’ve seen that had mashed potatoes. The cranberry came on a bit strong for my tastes, but the sandwich was so good overall that I can’t truly complain. I was skeptical about how well the stuffing-flavored chips would work instead of actual stuffing, but you know what, they did. They make only 30 of these in a day so don’t get there too late! Potato salad was damn fine too, and I’m super curious about the rest of [their menu](https://i.imgur.com/TfgncYj.jpg).

    As good as Brown Bag was, though, this was better. Best one I’ve had in the city, no exaggeration, and the damn thing doesn’t even have turkey, it’s chicken. The stuffing was the highlight for me, clearly made onsite, robust shrooms/veggies. The spread of cranberry was appropriately thin, didn’t overtake things. That’s chicken au jus at the bottom, which I alternately dipped and spooned on. Just excellent, and while only the UWS location has it, it’s a mere few minutes up on the 1. Maybe I’ll try and petition them to bring it to the WV.

    If you ever do a full menu review for Brown Bag or All’antico 👀

  6. Sometimes people on Reddit recommend Lenwich and I wonder if they’re aliens and it’s simply the only food they’ve ever tried

    I know what I’ll be doing tomorrow. Is there anywhere else on your list?

    Oh yeah, Poulet Sans Tete’s chicken with broccoli rabe and provolone is fucking amazing.

    Their fries are worthwhile, too.

    Really great and under-appreciated joint in the neighborhood.

    Get the fuck out of here with Lenwich. You might as well have gone to subway.

  10. Are there any other places in the city that do good ones? I work in Union Sq and would I’ve to have one tomorrow or Thursday

  11. Anyone try lil Frankie’s grocery thanksgiving sandwich?

  13. Parm is supposed to be great one and I love their turkey in general. Haven’t tried their Thanksgiving sand yet but hope to get there this weekend. Anyone tried yet?
