When I think of a poboy Im thinking french bread. I think you should just use your best judgement.

zombie, should I add a Vietnamese category before I open up for nominations? I dont know how many Vietnamese restaurants BR has.

no idea. just going off of my lifelong wealth of knowledge, past and present. i haven't lived in BR since 2006. take notice of Dearman's and Silver Moon. pretty sure they don't exist anymore.

it was in front of Juban's, i think i heard they moved locations though.
