A Village fave does sandwiches

Since great sandwiches often require going out of your way, and sometimes another dude, the team from JoeDoe has opened up a nearby sibling slinging non-relationship-killing sandwiches, with vintage to-go touches including childhood tchotchkes, an old Coca-Cola sign serving as the menu board, and a "20thC Hoosier Cabinet bar" that sadly won't be filled with Shooters. The goods:

The After-School Special: This utterly simple joint rocks white bread topped with mustard, fried bologna, and chips, because where fried bologna goes, Erik Estrada follows.

The Brisket Sandwich: Using beef from Padgett Farms, this meaty beast is slathered with peppercorn mayo and piled with caramelized onions on a brioche roll from Tomcat, which is funny, because by the time Jerry O'Connell was in Tomcats, he was no longer filled with butter.

The Conflicted Jew: No doubt earning its name from the fact that it will build a settlement inside of you and never leave, this piece mashes up chicken liver & onions with sacrilegious bacon and throws it on challah bread.

The JoseDoe Cubano: Resting on an Italian-style hero, this take on Fidel's fave is loaded with housemade pickles, Swiss cheese, mustard, roasted pork shoulder, and shoulder bacon, and anyone with a group/hungry self to feed can have their catering wing deliver monster three- or six-footers done in "Classic (Italian) or Modern (Jewish, Mexican, or Asian) style", though the last time somebody convinced you to get "modern" you ended up with another Shooter.

ExhortThe website is going to be at ChefJoeDough.com but for now you can add to My Thrillist, then gorge
