What distinguishes this Theater District takeout shop from your typical Boar's Head deli is its menu of carved-to-order rotisserie meats like pork loin and turkey, and quirky combinations like the "steak house": herb-roasted beef with iceberg lettuce, tomato, crisp onions, crunchy hash browns, and blue-cheese dressing on ciabatta. Our favorite, though, is the super-crispy fried chicken with grilled-corn slaw and barbecue sauce on a crusty Tom Cat baguette. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner come on a bun, but a good portion of the menu (including soups, salads, and sandwich fillings wrapped in lettuce) bows down to the cult of the low-carb. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld
