[Lancet71]

I lived in NYC when I was a kid then moved out to Long Island.In October me and the family moved to the western suburban area.Now heres your test....tell me the BEST place to get a chicken cutlet hero and a chicken cutlet parmigiana hero.For all who are misinformed---places that put chicken fingers on a roll and call it a cutlet hero,or sandwich are wrong. Also whether you call it a hero,hoagie,sub,grinder...all the same. OK people hook me up!

The best Chicken Cutlet type hero I've had, if I understand what you are looking for correctly, is several years ago from a little lunch cart in the middle of Victor. I don't remember his name, but it was something very Italian. He was doing it in his retirement back then I think, so I have no idea if he is still there.

A true Italian family makes their own! The best I've had came from my Nonna.

Where is nonna?Also alot of true italian families open delis and italian restaurants.A "really good" deli is usually where you can find a good chicken cutlet hero (but a restaurant usually only makes the parm.).

try Ciacci's in Greece on Dewey. Palermos on Culver in the city/irondequoit.

Nonna lives in Albany. She just celebrated her 75th birthday. She has been an American citizen for 48 years but it hasn't really kicked in yet. She votes in elections and is active in the local church, but thinks CDs are a fad and records will eventually reign supreme. She wore black for 10 years after Nonno's death per Italian tradition. Her hair is permanently the darkish shade of black dye. Her fake Christmas tree comes from the 1960s. The family baptismal gown (that she made) and family crib date back to 1958. And her chicken cutlet is the most amazing in the world.

Italian families ruin you for Italian restaurants.
