Just Jack Posted August 16 Posted August 16 I paid $20.99 the other day at Anchor Bar for a Beef On Weck, fries, and 5 wings. Quote
CookieG Posted August 17 Posted August 17 It wasn't a beef on weck, but I had an Italian Beef in Chicago last week and spent $11 at Ciccio's on the Navy Pier. It was worth every penny. The crusty bread was perfect and the peppers were just right in terms of heat. I shook the hand of the guy who made it before leaving and thanked him sincerely. 1 Quote

Order the: "Combo Sammich"... It adds a link of Italian sausage. I also add: Mozzarella w/hot & sweet peppers. Order it wet. Wetness scale: Dry Wet Dipped About $10 @ local places.

Last week I went to Katz's Deli and got a pastrami on rye and a Dr. Browns cream soda. It cost me more than 30 dollars in all. The sandwich had enough meat for 3 people (of course I ate it all) and was delicious. Still, I don't know how much longer these price hikes can keep up before the economy bursts. https://localmenu.katzsdelicatessen.com/menu-and-local/hot-sandwiches.html yea though I wouldn’t call that a remotely average sandwich price anymore than I would a foot long lobster roll price.

When ordering, just ask for the "combo sandwich." They will toss the link into that mess! If you're gonna get taken out by your diet... Might as well go big!😆🤣 1 Quote

ExiledInIllinois Posted August 17 Posted August 17 The problem with kummelweck rolls is they dry out in a day. Gotta get them fresh and most certainly keep them in paper. Buffalo Wild Wings used to serve it. Why it's still nicknamed as BW3: Buffalo Wild Wings & Weck Quote

I buy the Weck rolls at Wegmans, plus a container of their sliced "London Broil" and it is as good as the best restaurants, at half the price. The London Broil is really good. It's even better than half price when you consider drinks, tips, and tax for a restaurant sit down. A Wegmans close to where I live sells kimmelweck rolls. Thrn I get some very thin sliced roast beef and have my own. Whrn I’m in toen Andersons I will go get one from unless there are plans to go eat somewhere that might have it. OnNF blvd you have tends and andersons next to each other there was a place along the river that did a berf on weck with fries and a few wings as one dish. Quote
Augie Posted August 21 Posted August 21 (edited) I paid only $12.95 for a beef on weck with fries today. With an Arnold Palmer, tax and tip it came in just under $21. I can make one I enjoy more, but this is just so easy and near my house. . Edited August 21 by Augie Quote
