MM, light mayo means a light scrape on the roll. Diet/light mayo is far out of my wheelhouse. Light mayo, light sour cream, light beer. All abominations.

For an on-the-way-home treat here, I get a torta from one of the roadside vendors. I like mine with beef and some guacamole, onions and lettuce. Get extra napkins, 'cause it can get messy, and jalapenos, 'cause we're in New Mexico.

We have a Carniceria here in town that does the traditional Al Pastor on a Trompo….. I’m also a sucker for REAL Carnitas cooked in a large copper Cazo …..simmered all morning in lard…. 😎

If the suns down and I had to put some food in the gullet asap…….QT
Have seen zero food wagons out and about much past lunch for the labor crowd, but QT is 24/7 and has killer egg rolls and some passable BBQ sandwiches. If it’s late (early) enough, maybe even a smoked brisket breakfast taco.
I’m sure downtown Charlotte has some better options. I’m simply not familiar though.

As is par for the course, some answered the question and others stumbled off into the woods. Cut and posted from the original post: "Lots of places have their regional foods, and maybe some favorites to grab on the way home after a couple of pops with the fellas." Does one stop in to buy lutefisk regularly for lunch or something to grab on the way home after beers with buddies to eat when home? How about that nice slab of beef served on a nice ceramic plate with mashed and au jus on the side? That a thing you can call in to pick up at midnight after shooting pool? Platters or sushi or a dozen raw oysters along with a bucket steamed crabs called in on the way home? Here in New England anyway, most any town, depending on size of same, has between a handful to literally hundreds of sub shops/pizza joints in the big cities. You can get things like wings, chicken fingers, pies, salads and subs. A 'steak bomb' is but a slightly more robust form of the standard 'steak and cheese' sub. The fried onions, peppers and salami are standard on the 'bomb', but it comes however you like to order it. Hold the salami? Fine. No mayo? No problem. Add hot peppers? Sure. You want a different kind of cheese on your steak and cheese? OK, sure. Swiss, provolone, cheddar? Name your poison. No need to hate on another man's choice of cheese. Even if it's not quite a cheese. Hell, some consider that nasty, semi viscous bright yellow slop that they put on Philly steak sandwiches a cheese... I rarely do chain type fast food joints, so like last night, with the wife already asleep and me not wanting to bother throwing anything together myself, called as I was leaving the club. Ten minutes later, I had my hot bomb in hand and headed home. Thought about Chinese take out, but outside the city most anything you're going to get will be American Chinese, and for a proper plate it'll cost maybe triple that of a simple sub. I've had and kind of enjoyed 'poutine', which is definitely a quick, cheap and common favorite in Quebec, but I know of no where close that serves it. Bravo to those who actually understood and answered, with extra points to those who showed what they were talking about. Those tacos, sausages and topped beef patties are exactly what I was asking about: tasty regional casual favorites you can order on the way home. They all look damned tasty. In upper MI there is a sub shop that sells a sandwich called the Torpedo. Chopped steak, American cheese, salami, pickles, mushrooms, mayo and giardinera peppers. There is also a place where I grew up called big John's that sells steak and onion hoagies with mushroom,mayo, and a spicy sweet red sauce.

Nothin' like a good Italian grinder.........................sanwich that is. (Oh, the other kind is good too, but this is a sammi thread, right?) Unfortunately, where I used to live in SoCal they had a great Grinder shop, they just closed way earlier than bar time which would have been a great time for one of their specialties.

That's a good place to start for non-light jazz.

Looking at a Monk CD next to me and he's not on it, or on any of the other CDs I have that I know of. Probably heard him on late night jazz shows on the college stations I've listened to over the years and just didn't know it. But, this is a food thread so I wonder, did he like a good sub sammich after a gig?

But, this is a food thread so I wonder, did he like a good sub sammich after a gig? Baby potatoes, salt pork, meat from 4 wild rabbits, 3 goose, mushrooms, celery, onions, carrots, roux, garlic and much more. Slow cooked for about 4 hours. Bunch of fishing, hunting and shooting fools included. Every single one of these cats voted for Trump. Every single one
