Please help - We are visiting New York for the first time from England and my husband is obsessed with finding a deli / restaurant that sells enormous sandwiches. He saw the place on a travel programme a couple of years ago but doesn't remember its name.

The Carnegie Deli is where I thought of too. Bring cash. Located midtown, 1, maybe 2 blocks from the Sheraton NY, about the same from the Hilton NY.

Kat'z, that's a weird place. A friend recommended to visit the place and we did, walking all the way from Bryant Park. I had seen an episode of Joey that mentioned cheesesteak and I was wondering what the hell it was -- and so I ordered one. My girlfriend got some other type of sandwich. We were looking at those huge, thick sandwiched other people were having and praying that we won't get one..
The Cheesesteak was well, "interesting", don't plan to repeat the experience any day soon. I must confess I'd rather have a baquette with a slice or two of premium prosciuotto than a sandwitch with a thick stack of slices of anything.. quality over quantity.

Maybe they actually recommended "CheeseCAKE" since Cheesesteak is really a Philly tradition, rather than NYC.

my sentiments exactly, mike!
btw, my husband's favorite dr. brown's is celery tonic.
mine is cream soda.
don't go to katz's for either CHEESEcake or CHEESEsteak.
the best CHEESESTEAK is from a food cart on 43rd street, between park and lexington avenues.
be prepared to wait on line!
the most popular, creamiest ny CHEESECAKE is at junior's.
there is now one in manhattan, but the trek to the original
junior's in brooklyn is worth the experience!
and you can get MONSTER sandwiches there too!
