When in the East Village, Sunny and Annie’s on 6B was my #1.

Hoagie Haven in Princeton. So fucking good, place has been around since the 70s and knows exactly what they're doing. Plus it's right by Princeton, doesn't get much more prestigious than that.

Wow they do look good. They got 7th in the world on this list. Lots of Philly places on there.

Philly might be the US sandwich mecca though, never had a bad sandwich there.

Giovanni's in Secaucus.  They stretch their own mozzarella daily, and are generous with it on their subs.  The bread's baked daily nearby too.

I got my Charter back in the once a year in person days.  Doing the meadowlands (Secaucus) instead of Javitz was a killer pro move.  It's a lot easier to take it with 2k people than 20k.  It'd still blow out the nearby subway, burger king, etc. for lunch tho.  Spending your break on line for food isn't good for getting a passing grade.  I'd hop in my car and drive there each year.  It was like $20, but I'd be back and done eating before people were through the subway line.  My biggest stress was wondering if the other half of the sandwich would be fine in the cooler with the ice pack for dinner, because they're too huge for one meal.

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.
 

In DC, I like the Italian Store the most (in Arlington actually), but I want to check out A Litteri and Compliments Only. However, Stachowski's Market in Georgetown is probably the most prestigious for DC (good neighborhood, great sandwiches).
