Oh my gosh! That is the biggest selection of sandwiches I've ever seen. Have you seen how thick this guy is? They say everything's bigger in America. But seriously, it looks like sandwiches made for giants. This is why Americans are whales. How do you eat it though? You just go for it. Just eat it. Don't be a p****. Okay. Okay. I mean this place might be classy, but it's impossible to eat that with class, I'd say. That homemade mozzarella. Made every day. With that chicken cutlet. Absolutely incredible. We've been to New York a few times, But a deli has always felt a little bit unapproachable. You need a guide. You know, there's so many things to order. Where do you even start? We had the best guide ever. Oh, incredible. Oh, Jamesy. What's going on? Cug is everything you've ever dreamed someone from New York is. If you thought your dream is maybe a little bit stereotypical. Yeah. What's up, Michaela? How are ya? Just give us like a five sandwich platter. Okay, I'll have someone bring it up to you guys. Okay, cool. The deli felt like proper legit New York experience. There's just like meat and cheese everywhere, Of like every possible variation that you can imagine. You know gabagool? Gabagool, that's a real thing. That's a real thing. Gabagool right there. And then he's like, we're gonna eat upstairs. We suddenly found ourselves in a living room. With just an unbelievable amount of sandwiches. So, that's the chicken vodka pom. Chicken vodka? Vodka, like vodka sauce. Okay, vodka sauce. What's vodka sauce? So it's marinade. It's what? Cug, I love you, but initially, honestly about 20% is going in. Yeah, it's just like the joux and they do like put vodka in it. Cook the vodka out, put marinade in there and then heavy cream. It's like you skip forward a few goes on Duolingo and you're like, I'm completely lost. Let's do the Godfather. I mean that is crazy. I think it's salami, pepperoni, gabagool in here, mortadella, which is like Italian bologna. Obviously, they're muzzi, roasted red peppers. It's impressive you can distinguish that. You're like a sandwich geologist. You know, like crack open the rock. Oh my gosh. Wow, that one's dripping. That one is dripping. Hit me, hit me. Yeah, it's good. Come on, use those chompers. There you go, guys. Holy moly. It tastes fresh. Oh, they cut all like the cold cuts to order. It's not like Subway, it's like pre-sliced. Holy crap, that's incredible. I mean, that's incredibly hard to eat as well. Yeah. Almost dislocated my jaw biting into it. It's amazing to meet you in person, Cug. When I first saw your videos, I was like, does he do the accent at home? Or is it real? Is it a bit? Yeah, it's always been your accent though. I guess I dunno. I'm just curious. Like, is it regional? It's not something you picked up when you moved to Brooklyn. I want to meet a baby that talks like you. Let's dip into these man specials. They might explode on you. Espresso premium coffee soda. It's definitely a acquired taste. It's not for everybody. It's definitely like a Brooklyn thing. I like it. I like that. That's nice. Yeah, the factory is like three blocks from here. Yeah, I mean, it's sweet. It's like 40 grams of sugar. Yeah, it's hard not to like. It's pure diabetic. How many of the New York stereotypes are true? I mean, there's the stereotype that New Yorkers are rude. Yeah, we're nice. You're nice. Hard on the outside, soft on the inside. Yeah, we try to, you know, take care of our own. New Yorkers, they walk fast, right? We do. That's true. Get the **** out of the way. Ain't no sightseeing. Hate tourists? Yeah, I mean, normally tourists just got their head up their ******. Oh, okay. So it's the tourist's fault. They're just walking around drooling, looking at the buildings. It's like, keep walking. Hate the MTA? Yeah, I mean, I don't really take the subway or anything. I just do Uber. You guys got Uber over there? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. That and horse and carts. Horse and carts. You laugh, but we do literally. The police do ride horses around on like main London roads. It's a thing. When things get out of hand, police don't have guns. They just have horses. They don't have guns? No, no, no. Police don't have guns. Yeah, they show up on really big horses instead. Losers. Are you supposed to stop anyone?

Please do that, seriously. I want to try this chopped cheese. You want to try the chopped cheese? I feel like I've heard a lot about chopped cheese. This is like a very New York sandwich. Wow. This one is greasy. Yes, it's not good for you. Okay, okay. So I think this is onion, cheese. A cheese? In the UK, you normally slice it. Chopping is reserved primarily for like wood. That's true. That's true. I think it's called chopped cheese because like when you take a burger patty, you put it on the grill, you put like slices of cheese on it, and then you chop it with the spatula. Chop the crap out of it. And then it like infuses the cheese with the ground beef. Okay, so the beef fat and the cheese is all melted together in there. So it's like a pre-digested burger in a way. Pre-chewed. Yeah. You're really not selling it. You're not selling it. It looks incredible. Look at the sheer amount of meat in that. Just bloody eat it! Bloody hell. It looks so good. It's messy. Typically, this is like a budget meal. I really like that. Oh, that is so good. Yeah. It's absolutely filthy. Like this, I feel like fits with your sweater here. Yeah. Down horrendous. I don't really know what that means, But I feel like when I'm eating this, I should be saying. Yeah, down horrendous. It's just like hung over basically. Okay. Down horrendous. That would be great. This would be fantastic. I've actually got a question for you, Cug. The film Ratatouille came out. Fantastic. It came out in 2007. Great film. The average life expectancy of a rat is like two to four years. So by my reckoning, that rat died latest 2011. 2011. Right. Which is 13 years ago. But you're still cooking really well. I refurbished them you know. So what's your secret? Go **** yourself it's my secret. Stupidest question ever asked. In New York, we have a, not a hedgehog. What the ****? The thing that predicts early spring. Oh, the groundhog. The groundhog. They die every two to four years, but it's still like, Ah, you can just replace them. Substitute them. Okay. Okay. Okay. Right that's a funny question coming from Ollie though, Because literally everyone always says Ollie looks like Pixar characters as well. Olaf, some like gormless side character from How to Train Your Dragon. That one's bang on. So I feel your pain, man. I feel like at Pixar, they just got a picture of you and me. It works in the favour. You have to take it to the advantage, you know? Yeah. That's it. Next sandwich. I'll do my favourite Anthony and daughter. So this place is called? Anthony and Sons. Michaela, that's the daughter. Okay. Oh, so this is their special. Okay. Named after her. I would imagine. Unless there's another daughter he's not telling them about. Sorry Anthony, if you're watching this. Literally he's let us film in his living room. This is like my personal favourite. Bijou, burrata, arugula and then fig spread. What's figs? Or fig spread? Fig. Okay, fig spread. Okay. So this is a bit of like sweet. If you got like a sweet tooth. So, you know, salty from the bijou. This is a good one. Look at the cheese just like pouring out. Is that the fresh mozzarella? Stracchiatella. Stracchiatella. It's the inside of the burrata. Okay. So good. Oh wow. Oh my gosh. It is sweet. It is sweet. It's very sweet, yeah. Oh, it's salty as well. That sweet salty combo. That is the best one. That's the best one by like quite a way. I really like that. Yeah, it's very good. I can eat that every day. Sometimes you put like a chicken cutlet on there too. Oh hello. Ducky, try that. Your gonna love that Ducky. That's one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. Oh, here we go. Incredible. That's good, right? That is incredible. The fig is so good. We've got the soft cheese. Salty meat. You trained as an accountant, right? Yeah, I have an accounting degree. And then you got a job in an accounting firm. Am I right in saying you quit after five days because it was boring. It was boring. It sucked. I was like, what am I doing? Plus I was clueless. I mean, I cheated my way through college. I mean, I knew, but like, you know, I didn't like no-no. Yeah. I wasn't trying to learn. Five years later. Yeah, it worked out. It worked out. I mean, you've done so many collabs with different people. You know, I think that's the easiest way to stay relevant. You met up recently with Gordon Ramsay. That was cool. He was doing one of those kitchen nightmare things. And I don't know, he's invited me to like go eat. And then the dude was like, can he cut your hair? I was like, all right. Makes for good tv. I mean, as a New Yorker, you must've appreciated his directness. Yeah. He's definitely like, he's there. He's direct, but like direct, like a Patriot missile is direct. Yeah. Yeah. He doesn't fuck around. You've done a lot of food content over the years. A lot of sandwiches. Sick of it. That's like your whole brand. I know. Well now I just sell out, you know? What's your favourite thing that you ever made? Well, it's these sandwiches. I mean, the sandwiches are incredible. I mean, but I had this McDouble last night. That was just what you came for. A McDouble. Something that I love about your content, It feels like you just do whatever you find is fun. Whatever you want to do. It feels very genuine and like authentic. I try. Now it takes me like a week, two weeks to like write an Instagram. Yeah. In the beginning, it's easy when you pop off. Like, you know, like anything you say will just rip. It's like, oh, I have to be funny. Like every line. It's like depressing. And you've got siblings, right? Yeah. Two older brothers. Jeez, you did your research. I'm just a big fan. What do they make of this? Oh, they're cool. They, you know, make fun of me almost like the loser. You make videos on the internet. Yeah. Get a real job. Yeah. It's basically all my San An friends. Oh really? He's like in construction, like hammering a f***ing nail. I'm pretty sure that's what construction workers do, right? Like building scaffolds. And then they just see me online just drinking at two o'clock in the Evening, They're like this f***ing guy man. I mean, what's the end goal? Are you, or do you even have one? I don't have any goals. No goals. No goals. Okay. No, I just like live week to week. Day to day. I got to do something. I'll do something. Yeah. You'd always go back to accounting, I suppose. Yeah. I could always kill myself. You're not a fan of the accounting. It was, it was boring. I feel like you could have seen that one coming. Like how long is an accounting degree? Four years. Four years. You did it four year degree and then five days in you're like, hold on. This is boring. Well, even like while I was getting the degree, I was like, no shot I'm doing this. I just did it like, cause you know, my mother was like, get a degree. And I'm like, okay, I'll get a degree. One last sandwich. Yes. I think this is called the Anthony and Son. Can you give me some New York slang? Oh yeah. How can we describe this? Describe this. This sandwich. If something's good, what would you say in New York? Um, it's f***ing good. You know, this like, wow. Whoa. Oh, I've heard you say that before. Ming. Ming. Ming comes from mink. It's like an Italian word. It's like more like slang. Oh my God. Wow. Got it. And then like my own comes from a, the Madonna. Like madonna. Like the mother Mary. Yeah. The mother Mary. Madonna. Yeah. Not Madonna the artist. Like wow. Like a virgin. Touched for the very first time. Actually I hope so. Yeah. I've been eating it. It's a nice bite though. It's got eggplant, mutz. A lot of mutz. A lot of mutz. Is that mozzarella? Yes. Okay. Come one Ollie. That looks good too. Ming Madonna. You're right there. The eggplant. Eggplant's nice, right? And it's healthy. Oh yeah. It's probably fried in butter or whatever. There's a bit of sourness to it as well. Yeah. Man, all of these are so good. Like so, so good. If this place is in London, there'd be a queue around the block. Yeah. It's really good. Well, London got what like fish and chips, right? Yeah. Yeah. What are you gonna do with that? Eat it. I would say throw it out. Yeah. In fairness. Yeah. I mean, look, this is so much better than fish and chips. So much better. Yeah. We've got some fish and chip lovers behind the camera. Mate, Luke, try that. Seriously. I know you love fish and chips. I know you love a Greg's sausage roll. Yeah. But try that. Everything's just incredible. It's like fresh bread, fresh ingredients. The cheese, the meat. It's really good. Oh, what? Oh, come on. Holy crap. Are you serious? Try that sweet and salty one. No, you don't have to compare it like for like. We just don't have that in the UK. We have nothing like that. It's really good. It's really good. Literally. Seriously, if we lived anywhere nearby, I could just eat this every day. Be very happy. I mean people do eat this every day. Yeah. Different sandwich. I mean, there's so much choice. Yeah, there's like 50 sandwiches probably. Wow. 50 sandwiches. You have a different one each week. And two weeks off. The whole year. And then that's the whole year. Good maths Yeah. I could have been an accountant.
