'The Sandwich' and Other Hidden Culinary Gems

Katie Honan, senior reporter at The City and co-host of FAQ NYC, recently stumbled upon an artichoke parm sandwich (heretofore referred to as "the sandwich") she'd never seen on a menu before, at a small deli in Brooklyn. She talks about the history of the deli and how the sandwich came to be. Plus, listeners call in to share a hidden culinary gem.
