Ivy League booze?

Sure, but why would you need a term for adding "no meatballs" to your sub?

I can also recommend Lucatelli's (though I havent been there since I graduated) My (Italian) family really enjoyed the place.

You wouldn't - although you could think of it as "hold the meatballs" if there was no easier way to order the sandwich.  I don't suppose this comes up often on the Hot Truck menu.

IIRC, Hitler only had "one ball", but somehow I think ordering your sub "Hitler" would not be a good idea.  ::uhoh::

For those willing to travel for Italian food, Aiello's in Whitney Point is pretty good and if you are willing to drive about 45-50 minutes, Nirchi's in Endicott is fantastic.  Just make sure you get the Nirchi's Italian restaurant and not one of the crappy pizza places.  And while you're in the Binghamton area, you might as well stop by Sam the Beer Man on Upper Front St. and pick up some Schafer beer.  Obviously neither of these are quick, but if you're looking to get out of Ithaca for awhile on a Saturday afternoon, they're both good choices, though Nirchi's is better IMO

I understand that without the frosh there they may have needed to do something.  But calling in for Truck delivery is still "wrong".

I rarely ever waited too long, 'cuz during the time when I was totally truck addicted (3 to 4 times a week for "dinner" at the end) I usually got there before the truck did.  Thus no lines.

Calling in my order from the Chapter House so I could finish my beer before walking to Hot Truck for pick up was a marked improvement over standing on the steps for 45 minutes.   I don't know about delivery (even though it keeps OOTGWGROV employed), but a phone at Hot Truck for pickup is a great idea.

OTOH, it turns out that my body no longer agrees with a 1AM Triple Sui.

EDITED on 11/24 to comply with the strictures of English grammar.

I have been to Aiello's, and was quite impressed.  Very good overall, and excellent for the price.  Don't go unless you like garlic.

I'll try Nirchi's if I'm ever out that way.

Thanks for the recommendations all!  I'll give Lucatelli's a shot sometime.

My body never agreed with a 1am Triple Sui. That's the only sandwich I ever ordered that I couldn't finish in one sitting.  Very good stuff, but filling.

I love this board.  A thread entitled "Ivy League Booze?" ends up in a discussion of eateries in Ithaca and Hot Truck...
