Restaurants that devote themselves to variations on a culinary theme always resonate well with fast-food restaurant patrons who aren't in the mood to wrestle with a waiter over the exact meaning of, say, bouchees pauillacaise. No need to linger too long over the menu at W. G. Grinders: You know you're going to wind up with some kind of grinder, a large sandwich made of a long, crusty roll split lengthwise and filled with meats, cheeses, tomatoes, onions, lettuce and condiments. Depending on what part of the United States you're from, you might know it as a hoagie, a sub, a hero, a po'boy or a wedge, but in Ohio, it's a grinder, and W. G.'s raison d'etre. The lightning-fast staff makes 22 types of grinder in 6-, 10- or 20-inch lengths, from original Italian to white pizza. They even offer a separate, less cumbersome menu for the kids with pizza, three-inch grinders, or the old standby: peanut butter and jelly (though on more manageable bread).
