I used to enjoy the Hot Roast Beef even though I never considered it
a true sanfwich to easy to make and pick up between two pieces of
bread that were maintained bread and not soggy mushy wet ..what were
once bread.

OK ..I never knew it was a Manhattan .. it was a plate always one end
of the plate mashed potatoes or frys, with veggies in the middle and
at the other end something on top of something covered in gravy or
sauce with a few layers of chopped finely sliced beef with were
the soggy sandwich.

er ... thanks Dave...they are only but memorys today I try to re-live
at Swiss Chalet with their version ....    but then ...well that
was then and not today ;)  <g.>
