Ian McNulty on the "torpedoes" at Chef Ron's Gumbo Stop in Metairie: "Their stubby, pistolette-style 'torpedo rolls' are a regional specialty of Rhode Island, where restaurant owner and namesake Ron Iafrate grew up." Torpedoes are "essentially po-boy sliders, served three at a time with a mix-and-match format of fried oysters, roast beef and such." [Gambit]
