Speedy- Katz's is the Langer's of New York.... or vice versa, depending on whether you favor sunrises, or sunsets.... they're both old timers, and basically each is one of a kind. Capriotti's has done some expansion over the years, but is still a relative newbie, <50 y.o., though the last few years they have been contracting from their heyday.

Our First Ever $30+ (semi-)Fast Food Sammich... - Yesterday

Large Capastrami™ Combo at Capriotti's Sandwich Shop was $30.85 into the bag and out the door. (well, actually $33 w/ tip included, but still first time >$30 before tip) Talk about inflation! Wow! Still damn tasty, but they're leaving Jersey Mike's in the dust at the cash register. Damn, that's Langer's money at these prices! ==

Take your best weapons out to the range, and have a shoot off. If that doesn't settle it, take out the matching flintlocks, stand back to back. On "Go", take ten paces forward, turn around, and fire. If it's still unsettled, each pick your favorite fixed blade knife, with a blade no longer than 10", have the fight-master tie your off-hands together, and then after "Go&qu
