Nice place called Simon's in the Bronx has "Chubby Subbys."
It's basically a sub sandwich with your side stuffed in.
Is that place on Arthur Ave? Are you from the BX?

The custom sandwich idea mentioned earlier does well for a 2 location that I know of mom and pop place here. They seem to be really busy. A lot of takeaway business for the nearby work places. They a have a half sheet of paper with options on it. Circle your bread choice, meat choice, cheese, condiments, chips, soda, etc. turn it in with you name on it at the register. Can be faxed or probably e-mailed in and then someone from an office or garage or where ever comes pick it up.
I was at a place the other day that had a BLT with a chunk of of red salmon fillet on it. Probably work there as people will eat that salmon pretty happily in Europe. Could charge handsomely.

So, my wife and I are toying with the idea of starting up a take-away sandwich shop in the tourist area of Valencia here. It's early days, research phase really.
Dude, you should be talking to me for obvious reasons as I'm checking several boxes on your requirements list.

No point someone recommended New York style this or that if you are in Valencia Spain and all that is available is local spanish meats.
Yes, and that'll actually be your biggest problem ... the meat in Spain, on average, really SUCKS compared to the United States. Plus their hygiene standards are among the lowest in the world (Spain is #1 in food poisonings among tourists locations).
Anyway, this brother is going to hook you up. I do know a few local butchers I can get you in touch with. Send me a private message.

Spanish ham>>>>American ham. Best in the world actually, only Italian proscuitto comes close, and some parts of France.

Question for you Rocha... If Portuguese ham was really the best, why would need to hide its origin?

Muffaletta: Ham, salami, provolone, olive salad, giant muffaletta bread
Tortas are pretty good too, can be made with a variety of meats and toppings, must include avocado and quality bread.

Vietnamese Banh Mi sandwiches are underrated.
Chewy flakey baguette filled with cilantro, pickled white radish/carrots, different kinds of meat like BBQ sliced pork, sliced chili peppers, cucumber, chicken, or cold cuts, chicken liver pate or some other spread on the bread.
They are healthy too and not greasy. I ate these things every morning after my morning run in saigon and felt great.
A good banh mi sandwich should have all fresh ingredients and not substituted with stuff like Kale or western style pickles either. Fusion banh mi is for faggots.
