"I'm not picky. If the food tastes good, that's all that matters, right? The surroundings isn't necessarily a consideration. I don't have to be dining at the Ritz. Sun Subs isn't the Ritz. Located at 321 North Laramie Avenue in Chicago's not-so-elegant Austin neighborhood, south of Kinzie and Lake, it is a fast-food emporium that delivers all the inexpensive but ever popular comfort or street food that any self-respecting Chicago Cubs fan can imagine, including the Gym Shoe, a Chicago original that was created on the South Side in the 1940s but has been introduced to other city residents in recent years. You haven't heard of the Gym Shoe? It's a mega hoagie roll packed with three types of meat--Greek-American style gyros, roast beef and corned beef--with lettuce, tomato, mayo, mustard, cheese, onions, sweet peppers, tzatziki and Chicago-style giardiniera. Sun Sub's menu also includes hot dogs, Polish, gyros, Philly cheese steak, burgers, tacos, burritos, Italian beef, Buffalo hot wings, chicken nuggets, cheese fries and several submarine sandwiches, including corned beef, turkey, gyro, ham and turkey, roast beef and the ever loving Gym Shoe. In addition, you can order a dinner, either chicken tenders, jumbo shrimp, perch or catfish. Open from 11 to midnight Monday through Saturday, Sun Sub attracts a late crowd always hungry for a late snack."
