About this event

Our city boasts some of the most delicious original sandwiches and passionate sandwich aficionados. From the cheesesteak to the hoagie, and many others, Philly's culinary history has resulted in some of America’s most established meals between bread. Join Mike Madaio, author of the recently released book, A History of Philadelphia Sandwiches, in a lively discussion about the origins of your favorite sandwiches, including some myth busting and an examination of how Philadelphia became the world’s best sandwich city. We will accompany his talk with sample sized sandwiches, chips, and a drink.
