Yes. Twice it was peppered corned beef. Once--only once--
it was actually pastrami, but underdone.

I had a pastrami sandwich today at the Atlanta Bread Co.

Peppered corned beef.

I wish these mooks would learn the ****ing difference.

ABCo I can understand getting it wrong. They're some
sort of franchise concept deal that works out to an
upscale McDonald's. Real plates, and no grease, and
those buzzer-coasters, but same service.

But Chompie's is a local group that takes great pains to
pretend it's authentic. Then they serve this Boar's Head
crap. I love their pickles, but their pastrami is dreck.
