Dunno how many of you remember these from Bennigans, but god damnit they were delicious.

Ever since that place closed I never found anywhere that had them until about 4 weeks ago when I found ‘Off the Wall’ on elmwood. Well they had great ones, but wouldn’t you know they just shut down :mad:

anyone know of any local places that make this heart attack on a plate?? If you don’t know what it is, it is basically a deep fried ham and cheese sandwich with jelly. Sounds disgusting, but it is fucking awesome.

plz help - I really don’t want to live past 30.

Campus cafe has them on north campus in the commons.

JP bullfeathers has them in elmwood village

3

brew pub and colter bay both have them :tup:

the brew pub one is the better of the 2

4

If Brew Pub has them, I’m going tonight.

This isn’t just a french toast sandwich, it’s a double decker ham+turkey+cheese sandwich, dipped in batter, fully deep-friend.

that sounds ultimately delicious

yea, i had colter bay’s last night its not the same… it was like ham sandwich with french toast, was weird. also had no jelly…

i’ll try brew pub - man i fucking love this sandwich.

edit: will also try bullfeathers, thats closer to my house

i have never seen one deep fried, it is traditionally ham, turkey, swiss, mustard and bread. Dip it in egg wash and grill like a normal sandwich. Take off grill and bake for 10-15 min. at 350 and voila a crispy sandwich that has been around for years and is an staple at weddings and country club events as an Hors d’oeuvre

Batter + Deep Fry = THE ONLY WAY

YES

boooiiinnngggg

even wikipedia says traditionally it is battered in its entirety and deep fried, and wikipedia is the end all of knowledge of the internets.

11

from the looks of it, it does not appear so.

14

UGH wtf!!

15

Yeah just called.

They are fags and use french toast.

16

whats up with this campus cafe one - is it good and deep fried, or is it shitty and frenchy.

edit: if no one knows offhand, if you go there and verify if it is deep fried or not i will buy it for you, its cheaper than me spending the gas $

haahhhahaa A+++++ thread

Easily one of the finest food items ever created. I have had two in my life, and that will most likely be it. I hate being the fat guy eating the deep fried sandwich…
