Gonna have to narrow down where you’re staying, what you’re looking to eat, and what’s off limits.

I'm staying in Chelsea for four days (Thurs-Sunday). I am open to eating anything outside of indian and seafood.

Not sure where you are going to be but some of my favorite sandwich places are are Call Your Mother (multiple locations but I usually go to the one in Capitol Hill or Georgetown), Stachowksi Market (Georgetown), Bub and Pop's (Dupont Circle), Compliments Only (Dupont Circle) and Fight Club (Capitol Hill). Some notes I tell folks:

CYM is a Jewish Deli and all their sandwiches are on their fresh bagels which are good.
Stachowski Market has huge sandwiches and it is a butcher shop so the meat is on point (pause).
Bub and Pop's (Philly Inspired) and Compliments Only are both really good BUT their sandwiches are on hoagies rolls so technically they may be more of the "sub" family and I am not sure if you are looking for that.
Fight Club has big sandwiches and more of a variety in terms of meats, toppings and how they pair them. They also have really good drinks too and a solid happy hour.

That is all I can think of for now. I would check out their menus/location to see what you like and if they are near anywhere you are headed. Hope this helps

We made it to Call Your Mother right before closing, needed more time with the menu.
Got a BLT and a Pastrami, my girls had a turkey and cheese and they loved it. They have us a bunch of free baked goods.

I am really struggling to decide how I feel about this.

Coleslaw

Not sure why I ordered it

I don’t enjoy it that much except when on a bbq sandwich

It was solid/good though for coleslaw

 

[spizike231]

Coleslaw is a prime example of a #WOC

Even if it’s minimal, calorie wise..

You must sit all day at work.

That’s a decent lunch for people who actually work for a living.

But dinner needs to be served!

And sometimes stand

Chances are if I am hungry later it won’t be til late

In which case I’m just having a snack or going to sleep

[lawdog1]

I love good cole slaw. Unfortunately I’ve tasted a lot of cole slaw I didn’t think was good.
