Wax Paper Chinatown
Included In
This new outpost of Wax Paper is in a Chinatown arcade, and it’s just as good as the tiny original in Frogtown. They have some familiar classics, like the fully loaded Italian sub and the panzanella salad—but there’s also a whole bunch of new stuff worth checking out. Like a turkey sandwich with a bright slaw that involves clementines and serrano peppers, a roast beef sandwich with pickled beets and French onion sauce, or a ham sandwich topped with walnuts. The space is significantly bigger than the sedan-sized first version, so you can go with a group and grab one of the tables in the hallway outside, or go alone and sit at the bar.
