A crusty Italian loaf cut in half, piled very high with beef or pastrami, then submerged in a cauldron of au jus for the beef or a cauldron of (?) pastrami jus, wrapped in butcher paper and served dripping with juice and a huge pickle. When they changed bread supplier it just didn't quite taste the same. Like when someone you love passes, you may still find people who are wonderful, but jut not the same.
Remember the way it was, but don't expect the new to be clones of your past. Be thankful for your good memories.

I ate at the Hat in Brea California loved it and a small order of fries was a lunch sack. Supposed to be an authentic N.Y. Style pastrami took my boss who was from New York and he said it was not. Supposed to be on marbled rye with Russian dressing. Goes to show no matter how good if not from home wont be as good.
