Mediocre Meatballs

This is a cry for help.

For weeks I have been asking every person I see eating a Meatball sub what they think of it, and every time the answer is undoubtedly "Meh".

From FDA

So of course, I take to the streets and try and find the best Meatball sub in the city.

If you or someone you know, has the 411 on the best Meatballs in town, PLEASE let me know.

Post up here if you know a good one and I'll try it.

The Perfect Pesto

Dare I say that Al’s South Street Café’s Chicken pesto sub as been dethroned?

From FDA

One brisk fall afternoon, Figaro’s on 105 Beach Street in Boston MA (www.figarosboston.com) changed the way I think about Chicken pesto sandwiches forever.

From FDA

The Fellini on Ciabatta- grilled chicken, provolone cheese, BACON, sliced tomato and pesto mayo served on a grilled ciabatta roll. My mouth is watering right now just remembering it. Some say that there is no savory meal that cannot be enhanced by the addition of bacon, and in no instance has this ever rang more true. One could also say, that no savory sandwich cannot be enhanced by the addition of Figaro’s fresh grilled ciabatta!

Now stop me if I go too far by saying that, grilled chicken pesto, bacon, cheese, and a crusty fresh ciabatta are damn near the perfect combination of ingredients. I could live the rest of my life, and still be comparing other sandwiches to this.

Beyond a passing recommendation or stern urging, I am straight up DEMANDING that you drop what you’re doing, get out of your chair and run your ass down to Figaro’s for this sandwich.

Dope, fly, pimp, hustla, gangsta freakin’ sandwich!

The Rumanian Titan

If there were words that could describe The Rumanian Pastrami sandwich at Sam LaGrassa’s on Province St., you can bet they would sound something like, “Holy freaking crap”. I have been ordering this sandwich in exactly the same way for two and a half years and I have never EVER thought twice about it. I get the Rumanian Pastrami on a round roll, with onions mustard and American cheese, quite possibly the finest combination of things.

From FDA

Now I’ve had more than my fair share of pastrami, but never have I had one with quite the same impact as this. When I bite into this sandwich the world goes quite around me. My vision Blurs, my mind goes blank and I drift into realization that everything is going to be ok.

From FDA

Crowned as the number one sandwich on the planet, Mr. Lagrassa has truly created something great.
I dare you to find one better.

Boston's Best Blue Cheese Burger

From FDA

Without any doubt, I can say that Clarke's at South Station (www.clarkessouthstation.com) has the best damn Blue Cheese Burger EVER.

From FDA

There are many criteria a douche will use when choosing a burger, most important of course, is a burgers "Dopeness". Clarke's Blue Cheese Burger challenges the very meaning of the word "Dope". It makes me wonder if anything before this was ever really dope at all! When you toss in an order of their signature Dublin fries, and a bottle of Gulden’s Spicy Brown on the table, we’re ready to rock. Just hold the bottle upside down over your exposed burger and squeeze. The result? The best Blue Cheese Burger in the City.

This Food Douche lunch food choice of the week gets to sit at NUMBER 1 out of the top ten best lunch foods ever…. At least for now.
