![]() This proved to be a wonderful decision, as my sandwich was all types of delicious! I had such an amazing experience my first visit, I decided to create my own mammoth sandwich with fried chicken strips at the very top. ![]() The fried chicken was so tasty that it could have it’s own spin off business serving nuggets and strips. The meat quality is considerably better than their quick casual competitors along with the actual chicken served being 100 percent natural Halal. My fully vegan friends have fallen in love with Ike’s, a concept started on the west coast where locals have deemed it the official sandwich spot of San Francisco! The Hungry Black Man Sub Creation They even have a gluten free option for their incomparable Dutch Crunch sub rolls for vegans sensitive to gluten. The vegan options are some of the best in all Miami-Dade County for sure, which is awesome for me since I’m vegan three days each week. Everything about that sandwich was just plain delicious. The sandwiches are way too numerous for me to name a favorite, but believe it or not, it was the vegan options that were a real standout! I couldn’t believe the Italian Meatball was vegan along with the Italian trio I created. Good thing, because this place has over 700 combinations for your sub eating pleasure. No matter the weight, the bread can take it. The gentlemen obviously gave some thought to how they would package their subs because their choice of bread is game changing!

Ike’s Love and Sandwiches, located at 18719 Biscayne Blvd Suite 310, Aventura, FL 33180, serves an amazing bread called Dutch Crunch and it has no local comparisons. Well, I have stumbled on quite possibly the best bread used on a sub in all South Florida. You see, for me, the bread accounts for 60 percent of the sub’s quality. Suddenly, I loathed Quizno’s subs, in part because its bread had the same feel and texture as heated frozen pizza dough. I LOVED them all, especially Quizno’s but then a very interesting thing happen to my palate. Father and owner, John Green with his sonįirehouse Subs, Quizno’s, Blimpie, Jersey Mike, and other quick casual sub and sandwich shops were hugely popular during my high school and undergrad years.
