Five favorite sandwiches from dead restaurants

My all-time five favorite sandwiches from restaurants that no longer exist are:

• The original Commercial Café’s Barbeque, as consumed on N. Robinson St. from the early-80s to the late-80s.
• The Clover Room’s Club Sandwich, as consumed on W. Broad St. from the late-50s to the late-70s.
• Grace Place’s Open-Faced Munster/Tomato/Sprouts Sandwich, as consumed on W. Grace St. from the late-70s to the early-90s.
• Texas-Wisconsin Border Cafe’s Softshell Crab Sandwich, as consumed on W. Main St. from the late-80s to the early-90s.
• The original Village Restaurant’s Submarine Sandwich, as consumed on W. Grace St. from the late-60s to about 1980.
