>But whether it’s a $5 Italian from down the block or one served in a dimly lit private dining room at one of our city’s finest restaurants, 

Which of our city's finest restaurants serve hoagies in private dining rooms?

If you want their hoagies, bring money

Oh wow, I just looked it up. I think I'll stick with hoagies that don't require reservations.

Don't forget it's $450 for 6 people to eat hoagies and pizza. And people fall for this scam

It’s absolutely worth it, I went two weeks ago the sandwiches are so good time slows down, and it’s $75 a person + drinks and tip for a nice dinner that’s really not that expensive

More like yu pay for what you believe or are told is quality. I did the Beddia hoagie thing. Total rip-off IMO. There are at least a dozen places in the city with far better hoagies. Money's to spend, not waste. I'd rather spend mine on a meal with some creativity and uniquity rather than overpriced cold cuts on a roll.

Think it’s a scam all you want, it’s such an amazing and delicious experience. You have to be rolled out of the hoagie room

Hey, you do you. I felt it was decent, but not even close to the best I've ever had and absolutely not worth what they charge I'd much rather spend the same amount eating more unique and prepared food.

when i saw that line, i was more so thinking-- whose got italian hoagies down the block for $5? cheapest hoagie i can think of near me is $6, and its an 8" banh mi, modestly filled, a fine deal. cheapest italian hoagie i can think of near me might be ~$12ish? and its 12", obviously much more meat than the banh mi, about what you'd expect from your place down the block

The Heirloom Giant in NoLibs makes a solid, massive hoagie for $6.

It's not the best hoagie I've had, but it is the cheapest.

Where in fuck did he dream up a proper hoagie that costs $5 anywhere in the city? It costs over $5 to make one at home (unless one is in coprophilia).

Monde has some for around $7-8, and I think they are the cheapest for quality/quantity I've seen in awhile (Old Nelson's is legit as well, but they punch above $9 these days, IIRC).
