Sarcone’s Meatball Hoagie
Pretty much every time I visit Sarcone’s Deli, I order some rendition of an Italian Hoagie. The layers of high quality meat and cheese on that beautiful bread are too perfect to resist. But a hot, saucy sandwich on a cold day seemed like it could be a nice change of pace.
The Sarcone’s bread we all know in love covered in red sauce and melty mozzarella is a good thing. The meatballs though, were just not quite as good as some other Italian sandwich shops around town (Dad’s Stuffing and Pastificio come to mind). So, I want to know a) what is your favorite Sarcone’s sandwich? and b) where are your favorite meatballs in Philly?

George’s and DiNic’s are my two favorites for Italian-style meatball sandwiches. I’ve been meaning to get back to Johnny’s Hots one of these days, I think I’ll finally skip the Combo and give their meatballs a try next time. Coffee House Too at York & Belgrade put out a good one the one time I tried it a couple years back.
If I’ve gotta pick just one meatball sandwich of any kind, give me the Romanian kebab from Hamifgash.
As for Sarcone’s, I don’t think I’ve ever had anything there other than the Sarcone Special hoagie. I should get back there and branch out some.
