WRITING CULTURE 2012: Film, Food & Beyond

My group and I deceided to go to a local sandwich shop in the Flatiron District called Eisenberg’s Sandwich shop, “Raising New York’s cholesterol since 1929”. In my case that wasn’t as such becasue all I had was a typical tuna sandwich. I didn’t know what to expect when I arrived at the shop, but I was definelty surprised. One would not expect to see a place that looks like a trip into the past few decades still making business in a modern gotham  city such as New York. Eisenberg’s was definelty a time warp, but not only was I surprised at the old 50’s diner grill setting, but the pictures of all the celeberties that have visited Eisenberg. All celebrties from past and present have each had a photo-op with the owmner.

To any person it’s just a sandwich, but to me it all matters on how it is prepared. A tuna sandwich is not just about slapping some mayonaise into a bowl of a can of tune, but its the quanity of mayo that’s put into it. We can’t put to much mayo and make it soggy, but we can’t put to little mayo and have it dry. Eisenberg’s put just the right amount of mayo and the right condiments amount of condiments that include the typical lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles. But to my suprise not only did I not expect the pickles, which is a fav of mine, but I was treated to two large pickes. Yummy!
