I thought the MTA was in NYC.
I haven't been on the MBTA in a while. Last time I went into Boston was today actually and I drove myself.
Hah.
That sandwich does look delicious if you removed the mustard and put something else on. (I do not like mustard by itself... I'll deal with it on a McDonald's quarter pounder but otherwise I hate it)

LOL, his new name?
It's what happens when I type when tired. The subliminal text is a hint...

I am no fan of mustard, either, but I do believe that a small amount does add a nice bit of tanginess to a good pastrami sandwich--otherwise, the meat and bread can be a little overwhelmingly heavy and leave your mouth feeling a bit coated. I usually ask them to go light on the mustard, though.

Every doctor I have ever seen has told me that I will wind up quitting smoking for good. The only question is which will cause it first -- some result of my smoking or a jealous husband.
BTW: A certain member of FT is trying a third way. I asked her to send me 6 boxes of Girl Scout Thin Mints and, instead, she sent me 12 boxes.

If you cannot get to NYC anytime soon, you may want to whet your appetite with one of these suggestions.
That said, if you don't like it, don't rule out a visit to one of the holy halls of pastrami in NYC--as one of the Chowhounders put it, the Boston examples are "not even in the same universe." When it comes to sandwiches, Massachusettsans should probably stick with what they do best: roast beef. I have yet to find a roast beef sandwich anywhere on earth that competes with this one. (Prior to spending time in Mass a couple of years ago, I did not know that roast beef did not have to be bone dry...)
