made of sliced Kobe beef, melted Taleggio cheese, shaved truffles,
sauteed foie gras, caramelized onions and heirloom shaved tomatoes on a
homemade brioche roll brushed with truffle butter and squirted with

Joey! Is it just me, or does that sandwich look kind of...icky? If I hadn't read the description, I'd think it was just another fast-food sub. All in all, my dear, I'd rather go out for dim sum on Spadina.

Hi, Lisa!
Yes, from the photo, the sandwich looks like any other cheesesteak sandwich. Submarines/Heroes/Hoagies don't embrace food aesthetics the way Japanese cuisine does; the philosophy of hoagies is to not sweat appearance but provide meat, and lots of it!
A Philly Cheesesteak is like sex: without a helluva lot of forced posing, fluffing, unnatural camera angles and lack of access to the real thing, neither looks terribly appealing in a photo.
Great. Now I have a truly scary mental image of someone "fluffing" a cheesesteak sandwich.
