no airline food?.....avoid the fish.
And don't call me shirley.

Sarah, if you really want to treat yourself, take a walk down to Defontes, 21 and 3rd. HUGE sandwiches--will definitely hold up!
Or go to milano 34th btwn 5th and 6th, again huge sandwiches that will definitely hold up.
-
make that madison and 5th for milano.
-
Good call with Defontes. Number 34 (roast pork) all the way. Maybe ask them to put the "juice" in a separate cup instead of onto the roll and reassemble on the plane.
-
Defontes looks good, but it might be too far, sadly... Milano looks solid, though. They've got a few veggie sandwiches for this damned hippie
and Rudy:
Airplane = solidStewardess, I speak jive
-
just make sure to get condiment(mayo, O&V, etc.) on the side so the bread doesnt get all mushy
-
What about getting a package of kimbap from Woorijip? Doesn't need to be chilled, won't get mushy, and packs flat.
-
I don't think you can get food past security. They make you buy everything after that hassle.
-
Cheese, I travel a lot and I get food past security all the time.
-
Cheese, you don't wanna know how Sarah gets carrot sticks and humus on a plane.
-
No olive oil or vinegar, that's liquid and will not be allowed past security if it's over the what 3 ounces?
If you're up for a short walk from the A train JFK station... let me know, I have a kick ass place in Howard Beach for sandwiches.
-
Kimbap is an interesting idea... I might take a look... Yvo, I'm taking the E tomorrow, but I'd *love* to know your secret spot for future reference/when I go to JFK from Brooklyn!
-
Not really a secret, heh.

It's a brisk walk from the train but really worth it. I realize I posted photos of roast beef sandwiches, but I know for a fact that they have eggplant parm in their case and anything in the case can be put in a sandwich. They've got an amazing selection of prepared foods, too... yum. Broccoli salad, green bean salad, lots of really good stuff, so vegetarian as well.
If you're anywhere near Bay Ridge... well, I have a place there for sandwiches too that are *amazing* I might be biased since I was one of the judges in their recent sandwich contest, but they also have AMAZING CUPCAKES and omfg... well just Google it or look it up on my site, I don't want to blast links on Zach's website, but Robicelli's... mmm damn.

So I'm flying to LA tomorrow night (tacos!!) and in order to avoid a dinner of $9 nachos at JFK, I usually buy a sandwich and eat that for dinner on the plane. I'd love some recommendations for a place to get a sandwich that will hold up for a few hours, particularly in the bread department. I was thinking Macaron Cafe? or maybe le Pain Quotidien? Also I work on 5th and 35th so preferably somewhere in the area....
