ok ok......I've had EHNOOF! They are Hoagies! A Hoagie placed in an oven is a Grinder. Philly is indeed the mecca of great for that is horrible for you, but you only live twice.
I live about 7 minutes out of Philly on the Jersey side. We actually have great hoagie, pizza, and cheesesteak places on this side of the Delaware. These aren't better than Philly's best places, but they more than hold their own while in such company:
Gaetano's - Rt 130 North in Cinnaminson, NJ. Hoagies and Cheesesteaks that are just massive, and reasonably priced. Excellent components.
Meadowbrook Food Market - Union Ave and Githens Ave in Pennsauken, NJ. Sandwiches to die for. Sarcone's bread brought in from Philly daily, and almost a waiting list to get a sandwich on the stuff. A "half" portion is enough to clog an artery.
Joe's Pizza - Wisteria Ave and Clayton Ave (Right near the Courier-Post News Paper building) Cherry Hill, NJ. Any place where you walk in and the people treat you like a king is alright by me. The Prices on the menu never stand up, because after a little small talk the guy always lops off a buck or 2 from everything. Pizza is stellar.
The Yellow Submarine - Forklanding Rd. Maple Shade, NJ. Cheesesteaks and Hoagies, nice.
Vincent's - Park Ave. Merchantville, NJ. The original home and patent holder of the Panzarotti. Quality of the ltasty dough pockets of artery cement has slipped somewhat in recent years, but still a good eat.
For 95% of the people on this board this post was awful. People who live in the area though should give a few of these places a try though, they're less expensive and just as good as your favorite places in Philly.
