Where can I find a "fat sandwich" in Manhattan?

As a loyal Scarlet Knight who's lived in NYC for the past 7 years, I can say with certainty that the fat sandwiches are unique to the Rutgers New Brunswick campus....I haven't found any place that makes them here, and yet they're unparalleled in terms of late night drunk food. The grease trucks on College Avenue sell them, but they can also be found at any one of a number of pizza joints on nearby Easton Avenue (RU Hungry...quality).

My personal fave was always the Fat Knight, which I recall being cheesesteak, mozz. sticks, french fries, and chicken fingers with ketchup and lettuce on a grinder roll.

Then I recall celebrating the completion of my senior thesis with a 6 pack and a Fat Elvis....essentially a gyro with french fries and mozz sticks.

The Fat Cat is the standard....double cheeseburger w/ fries on a grinder roll.

Such memories!

@dmg924
You know, to this day, I never got RU Grill to deliver a fresh Fat Sandwich to my door. Not like a special trip out to the grease trucks isn't great and all, but the idea of a Fat Sandwich transported to you, instead is tempting.

You're making me hungry, I haven't had a Fat Sandwich in ages.
