More Italian hoagies

Last week, I reviewed Timmy D's, an Italian hoagie shop on Lincoln Street in Wilmington. NJ reader Andy Miller - whom I met while writing a story about the outstanding farm table dinners at Talula's Table in Kennett Square, Pa. - wanted to point out another place nearby. Here's his email:

Dear Patricia,

After reading your article on Timmy D's I felt compelled to write you a brief note and urge you to visit Gaudiello's Italian Hoagies and Steaks located in the back of Trolley Square [shopping center] near the Chinese take out restaurant.

This husband and wife team are the real deal. They slice the steak fresh for every sandwich and their Italian subs are loaded with the best real Italian meats. They also offer homemade Italian hot peppers which are incredible (really hot but very flavorful).

I am writing you because they have been in the "bad" location for about a year (?) and I don't know if they have found a following and I would hate to lose them.
Although I also enjoy great food and wine (I met you the night you observed our group at Talula's Table) I also am quite the connoisseur of great steaks and subs and these two really are the best I have ever had.

Please give them a try (and a mention!).

Andy Miller

P.S. I am just a loyal customer with no other interest than protecting my source of cheese steaks!
