Since the bun makes the sandwich we order KUMMELWECK ROLLS from Western NY and make our own, perfect, maybe not but close enough to enjoy.

Order from: Your Italian Bakery - Fresh Panettone, Biscotti, Cookies & Much More – DiCamillo Bakery
In Lewiston.

Same with Cody's in Brownwood. Went there for Thursday Night Football and they said they don't get the channel for that. I had already started my meal by the time that I found that out.

I completely agree! If the bun or roll is inferior, it doesn’t matter how good the quality of the meats, cheeses, veggies, condiments, etc. (I would say the same of a pizza crust).

Thanks for the link - I just pulled it up and those rolls sure look good - I’m from the West, so unfamiliar with a “weck” sandwich, but looking forward to trying it. I enjoy learning about and tasting all the various regional specialties found throughout the country.

And I went to a Beef OBrady’s and to my surprise they weren’t serving liquor! Don’t know what the problem was that night, but very strange.

Maybe that’s The Villages way of keeping the peaceful and keep trash out!

Default Notre Dame Game

We use to go to Margaritaville and now they are closed. Does anyone know where the Notre Dame fans go to watch the afternoon games now.

Learning all kinds of stuff today!

"The sandwich, along with Buffalo wings and sponge candy, is one of the three best-known food specialties of Buffalo.[4]"
