In Philadelphia, something you will come to recognize about our famous sandwiches (cheesesteaks and hoagies) is that a great sandwich always begins with the bread. In fact, it may be the single most important component to realizing an amazingly delicious authentic Philadelphia sandwich.
Sarcone's might just be the best. They have been baking bread in South Philadelphia’s Italian Market for five generations.
The Sarcone's Hoagie Roll is a work of art. A delicately crunchy crust and a soft, dense interior, the combination of which makes for the perfect bread to be filled with meats, cheese, oils, vinegars and herbs. (Conveniently, Sarcone's Deli is just up the street from their bakery.)
