This is an Amato's Italian Sandwich. One of my local favorites. I just picked up some cold cuts so I will make my own.

Their sandwich is Ham, provolone, onions, tomatos, pickles, greek olives and green peppers with salt pepper and olive oil.
 
Won't know for sure till I look at the menu at the pub. Probably something that will go well with a nice IPA :beer:
 
I have chicken out..... I cant decide if it wants to be Lo Mein or parmigiana.....

I asked it but it wouldn't say...

bah-dum-bum DING!:rolleyes:
:sorry:
 
The votes are in.
My chicken breasts are feeling Italian tonight.
Parmagiana (sp?) it is.
I suppose I should be cooking now......
 
HUUUUUGE lunch. Maybe a beer and some munchies. BUT... my "tablescape" from Sandra Lee is beautiful! And yes...... Im kidding about the table thingy.
