WilJax Famous Sandwiches & Deli

So today I took my two sons to WilJax on the White Horse Pike in Oaklyn. Truthfully, I have driven past this place hundreds of times on my way to work or wherever and never gave much thought to it. Maybe the reason was the Dietz & Watson signs and having worked in a deli for 10 years, Deitz & Watson was the brand behind such delicasies as deluxe loaf, pickle & pimento loaf, and olive loaf. Definitely not Italian Hoagie material. I was wrong!

I ordered the large (12inch) Spicy Italian Hoagie on an unseeded roll with hot peppers of course. This is where my opinion of Dietz & Watson changed. This hoagie was packed with a perfect portion of spicy cappicola, ham capicola, genoa salami, pepperoni, proscuitto, and soppressata. It was complete with sharp provolone and seasoned with oil/balsamic vinegar. Very nice indeed! But just as important as the meat/cheese selection was the roll. This was a crusty unseeded Italian loaf that was awesome from Liscio's Bakery in Glasboro, NJ. The roll would have been a nice meal all its own but since it was filled with all the goodness, i ate everything! In my humble opinion, this hoagie was top notch and falls into my very academic category of sort of fancy hoagie.

I would highly recommend checking this place out! Don't wait 3 years like I did.
