Cheese Steak BLT Club @ Vesuvio's

[Lisa1349]

I know it was deemed so by the Today show, hardly known for it's culinary prowess - but the designation is a big deal. And, my trip to Vesuvio's Saturday night confirmed that this is THE sandwich of all sandwiches.

The bread was part kaiser roll, part focaccia. Contents: sliced, grilled filet, caramelized onions, provolone, crispy bacon, lettuce, tomato & sriracha mayo.

Amazing. Who else has had it? Whaddya think?

We usually get fattest or ugliest city, so best sandwich is an honor!

Sriracha mayo!

That should earn it points automatically.

(I've been combining mayo with the Korean chili sauce -- slightly sweeter than sriracha -- that H-Mart sells lately and loving it.)

Guess I need to conduct an inspection visit.

I assume this sandwich is somewhere in the $7-$10 range?

The menu is fun, including a lobster club sandwich and sourdough pretzel crusted fried calamari, which were meaty, tender and great. I would have liked to see a more interesting dipping sauce than standard marinara- maybe something honey mustard based to go with the pretzel crust.
