Firehouse Subs is a sandwich chain that started in 1994 in Jacksonville, Florida, when two brothers, Robin and Chris Sorensen, who were both firefighters, opened the first shop. Its best-known thing is the steamed hoagie: the meat and cheese are steamed until warm and melty, then served on a toasted roll. The menu runs to hot subs, cold subs and the classic steamed options, and the chain's New York Steamer (corned beef and pastrami, as one member's post at /t/47 describes) is a favorite among regulars. If you're choosing, ask the counter for their current menu, since locations and specials vary.
