Carmen's Famous Italian Hoagies
Delicious (if heart-clogging) sandwiches from Philadelphia's famous farmers' market
Smack in the center of Reading Terminal Market, Carmen’s Famous Italian Hoagies defines Philly attitude. These sandwiches aren’t submarines or grinders in Philadelphia, they're hoagies. And they’re taken seriously.
Fried onions, healthy helpings of mayo and delectably sliced meat — perhaps from the fresh butcher the next stand over — are diced and sliced on top your sandwich before your eyes.
As an alternative to cheesesteak, try the chicken sandwich topped with red peppers.
