The best kind of sammich is a ___________ sammich.

[Gibsons]

Here is a pic of one from Central Grocery, home of the "original Muffaletta". Lots of great places to good a good muffuletta in N'awlins, hell lots of outstanding food period, but Central Grocery's muffaletta is still one of my favorite places to grab a bite.

That olive salad really makes the sammich, imo. Great tangy/acid/salt/olive flavor and nice crunch. I'll just put it on some lightly toasted bread and eat that.

I like Reuben's, but not with too much meat, every time I get one at Jason's Deli, I feel like I'm about to have a heart attack.

I like cubans a lot but I have my own press and replace the pickles with hot banana peppers. Takes them to another level.

And supposedly cubans sammiches were invented in Tampa. Never once had a good cuban in Tampa when I lived there. Miami and Orlando both have better offerings.

A pastrami from Katz. If there's one sandwich that should be on your bucket list, this is it.

Meh. That rye bread they serve it with is a fucking tragedy.

Been into paninis lately. Hot, smashed, crinkly bread texture, melted cheese, yum. Local place does them on giant ciabatta bread with a huge hot press.

Paninis? Isn't that the Cuban sandwich from France?

It's Italian, but you can make a Cuban on it:

I have a small panini press (was previously just using a George Foreman); someday I'd like to get a commercial-sized model, but those are like five hundred bucks. Hard to beat a hot sandwich though!

And that's exactly what a good Ruben is all about! :\

My only problem with that sandwich, haven't had one unfortunately, is that it'd be pretty tough to get all of the flavor in one bite. I like the combination of all of the ingredients in a reuben in one bite and there's no way that'll happen with that sandwich. Looks tasty though.

If I had to only pick 1...
