The counterman and the grill man still call it "The Paulie." But even if the sandwich that the menu board now dubs the "Blast from the Past" (roll, $5.95) has slipped into the oldies rotation, at J.P.'s it still seems to get heavy play.
In concert with turkey, mozzarella, and brown gravy, the most notable ingredient — the slightly darker layer, when seen in cross-section — is a wad of hash browns. As with the croquette in one particularly good Cuban sandwich, a little crispiness can be a very good thing. I'm sure the grill man will be happy to oblige.
