You can’t discuss sandwiches without mentioning Sam LaGrassa’s, a family-run eatery that’s been in business since 1968. There virtually isn’t an award or endorsement that this place hasn’t received, from everyone from The Travel Channel to Nightline. Try the pastrami or corned beef. You’ll find Sam’s at 44 Province Street in Boston.
For comfort food with one heck of a kick, order the Atomic Meatloaf Meltdown. This sandwich features grilled meatloaf, red onion jam and Jack cheese, all smothered in the house’s habanero hot sauce. All Star Sandwich Bar is located at 1245 Cambridge Street in Cambridge.
If you order one thing at Pennypacker’s, make it the porchetta. Diners adore the skin-on roasted pork (pictured) that makes this sandwich a star. Chase down the Pennypacker’s food truck or go straight to the restaurant located at 514C Medford Street, Magoun Square, in Somerville.
