We invite you to enjoy the tender, smoky pork balanced with the acidity of pickled onions, the buttery, melty Oaxacan cheese, and the smoky flavors from guajillo and ancho chilies.

Dekum :Dip City!

What’s In It: Slow-braised pot roast piled high on a toasted hoagie, smothered in melted Swiss cheese, caramelized onions, and drenched in savory French onion broth. Served with a side of rich, flavorful gravy for dipping.

What They Say About It: This sandwich is so good because it combines the rich, melt-in-your-mouth tenderness of slow-braised pot roast with the deep, savory sweetness of caramelized onions. The Swiss cheese adds that perfect creamy melt, while the French onion broth gives it that extra layer of flavor and moisture. Dipping it into a rich, flavorful gravy ties everything together, creating a balance of savory, juicy, and umami that makes each bite irresistible. It’s comfort food at its finest—warm, hearty, and full of flavor.
