Help with calorie count

Hello:
Today without blinking i had a 8" buffalo beef cheese steak sandwich, sadly i have not developed a resistant for those, although I'm doing my workouts and regular counts I feel so guilty mainly because i did not even bother to find out the calories before making the mistake, now i CAN'T find info anywhere, i have no idea how much of anything was in it (bought it ) the sandwich was from Royal Pizza and the size was about 8" in white bread, had beef, provolone cheese, salad (lett,tom,onions) and of course buffalo sauce I estimate about 600cals but don't wanna assume, if anyone has any tips on how to calculate this better or has knowledge of how many calories are in their sandwiches I could really use the help!
Thanks,
V

Great suggestion. I traveled for work most of last year and I regularly had to just find a similar item or piece together similar items to make an educated guess at what I had eaten. It's not perfect but better than nothing.0 -
Similar looks like around 600-700 calories---not 100% sure.
It should be easy to look up something similar for nutrients.0 -
I've been looking including that Firehouse one(thanks) it sound about right, hopefully not way off but me doing a bit of calculating based on the ingredients makes sense that is pushing towards 700.
Thanks!0
