A Sandwich A Day: 'Famous Steak Sub' from The Wing Bar

In this great city of ours, one could eat a different sandwich every day of the year—so that's what we'll do. Here's A Sandwich a Day, our daily look at sandwiches around New York. Got a sandwich we should check out? Let us know. —The Mgmt.

Occasionally, in this profession, you find yourself on the last stop of a six-bar wing crawl and still end up ordering a sandwich because you watch one cooking and think it looks just unmissably good. That's the case with the Famous Steak Sub ($8.50) from The Wing Bar in Carroll Gardens. Not unlike a cheesesteak on different bread, it's got thin ribbons of steak cooked on a griddle with a mighty, mighty helping of onions, all covered with cheese and topped with a lid so everything steams and melts together in the heat. It's piled on a crusty, seeded roll that's just thick enough to sop up all the drippings. (Extra jus comes alongside.) The fries are great, too —thick, salty, and crisp.
