the BEST sub shop is SUB-MED on cherry way across the st from pirmanti’s…

the cajun chicken at the pirmanti’s on cherry way is the bombest ever!!

sammy’s corned beef is good for fresh lunchmeats and bomb wheat bread (on smithfield)

cheap pizza/hoagies is the itialian village, or whatever it’s called now on smithfield by the subway.

china town inn on 3rd (i think) across from the grant building is BOMB azn food…

peppi’s over by your school is good for steak and skinned french fries.

definitely go to sub-med… tuna hoagie \> \* …their gyro’s are good too

fu lai on penn, just accross from 5th ave. place and voccelli pizza. Best under $5 chinese in the city.

There is a little italian / pizza / sub place in market sq, to the left of subway. can’t remember the name of it though, might me mama something. They toast the buns for their subs too much, but they are still pretty good. Pretty good pizza by the slice too.

I wish I remembered the name of that pizza place that had killer deals on a large pizza. It was like $5. It was kinda weird because there was never anybody there but they were open for the 4 yrs I went to Aip.
