@eater

"This Mount Airy bakery gives a New Orleans spin to a Philly classic with its fish hoagie. Lightly battered seafood is piled onto garlic-buttered, toasted long rolls and generously drizzled with rémoulade. The offerings here aren’t limited to white fish filets — fried shrimp, mussels, and salmon are also on offer." - Ernest Owens
