JACKSON, MI – Hungry Jacksonians looking for a famous East Coast hoagie will soon be able to get their fix.
Metro Detroit-based cheesesteak shop Lefty’s Cheesesteak will soon open its 35th franchise location at 808 W. Monroe St. in Jackson, Chief Operating Officer Carlos Guzman said. The target opening date is June 15.
The featured cheesesteak is made with rib-eye steak, grilled onions and a cheese blend of white American and Swiss. But it’s not your typical cheesesteak, Guzman said.
Yak Diner sells a Big Mac-inspired sandwich dubbed the “Yak Mak.”
Customers with extra-hearty appetites can upsize and dig into the “Yak Stak,” a doubled-up version.
“What makes it special is fresh, real meat on Italian kaiser buns and it has four pickles not two and our homemade Thousand Island dressing,” said manager Sherry Lanning.
Yak specializes in homemade classic diner fare in a decidedly casual atmosphere. Lanning said customers love the big portions and cheap prices.
The Yak Mak and Yak Stak cost $4.90 and $8, respectively. All menu items are priced under $10.
The butcher shop at Held’s Shop’n Save, located a few hundred yards down the road, grinds the beef daily for Yak.
