The pork’s juices soak into the bread in all the right places. DiNic’s at Reading Terminal Market is the spot most people rave about, but I’m here to tell you that you can totally make this delicious roast pork sandwich at home, Philly-style.

Let’s drink to that! A New Jersey suburb voted Tuesday to ditch its 138-year-old prohibition on liquor licenses, paving the way for booze sales.
