Bread-5-
Bread wasn't much to speak of. However, it did the job.
Not Beef-5-
The eggplant was delicious on this one. In the past Hoagie Haven's eggplant wasn't up to snuff with their neighbor across the street (Zorba's, review coming soon..) I think perhaps they saw "Not Beef Sandwich" from a mile away.
Cheese/sauce-3-
The cheese was practically non-existent. But the tomato sauce complimented the eggplant very well.
Flavor-7-
This sandwich hit the spot. The tomato was delicious and the onions and lettuce were refreshing. It wasn't overly flavorful, in the future I may get hot sauce on it as well, definitely could have used a little bit of a kick.
Misc.-3-
I was starving before I got to this one, perhaps I was a bit biased. Hoagie Haven's eggplant parms are definitely lacking without the lettuce, tomato and onion. In the past I've also had jalapeno's on it and it did the trick. It was good for an eggplant parm hoagie, but I wouldn't recommend a lone eggplant parm sandwich from Hoagie Haven, there are better ones nearby.

wait... so instead of beef you put eggplant on it?!!? wtf?! that's the craziest thing iv ever heard! If you cant put beef on it, put bacon on it!
ReplyDeleteYou should put Sanchez on it. I like to order the eggplant parm with Sanchez sauce instead of tomato sauce sometimes. This takes it away from being an eggplant parm a little but it is really good. Also, Hoagie Haven is happy to substitue eggplant for chicken in their signature Sanchez sandwhich. If you haven't tried this before, it is really an experince.
