Also, I've gotta get this one off my chest: The Wienerschnitzel franchise does not sell wienerschnitzel.

All this talk of subs made me hungry, so on my lunch break I went to Zeppelin's and got a club. Mmmmm...Zeppelin's Club.

Speaking of German stuff, I have to praise the European Bratwurst and Sauerkraut hotdogs. Simple and effective.

The Subway Ordering voice is very similar to A Dozen Donuts voice and I Have Coupons voice. They come from the same part of the throat.

Subway tastes like refrigerator.

One time I was at Subway, there was a short girl making the sandwiches, and when people would ask for a topping that was way in the back (up against the sneeze guard) she would have to lean and stretch to reach it and inadvertently smoosh her boobs into every sandwich she was making.

That day I ordered tuna, so if she smooshed her boobs into it, I'd have proof.

I'm a Quizno's guy, although they are pretty expensive. But if they keep making my prime rib and peppercorn the way they do, I'll keep coming back for more. So damn delicious.

I only go to Subway when it's near a job I'm working at, and if the special $2.50 sandwich of the day is to my liking. Otherwise, no thanks. Their bread is terrible.

Yes!! I swear I hear that every single time I go to Subway.

How was your Boob tuna?

Found this, I didn't make it though:




I have never once eaten SUBWAY. When it comes to a complex sandwich like a sub, I prefer to make it myself.

This reminds me of a bit Brian Regan had about going to the donut store and how the people would just spazz out when ordering a dozen donuts.

If shills were smart I think they would look for threads like this and mention sandwich shops to get them in people's minds. I say this because now I'm going to have Quizno's for dinner, bastards.

Anyone here outside of Montréal ever try Dagwoods?

There was a Dagwood's here a long time ago. I don't know if it was part of a chain but it was awesome.

I think that the Dagwood's that Chris talked about is a Montreal only chain. So much better than Subway.

No one has voiced Penn Station as an alternative to Shitway.

I'm surprised.

I hate the NYC style deli sandwich of piling on a pound of meat on thin rye (bread has flavor, but you'll never get a chance to taste it in these monsters), but Quizno's is in the other extreme. Yeah, the meat's a higher quality, but it's paper thin and you're putting two slices on the entire sandwich. And then charging me $7? Fuck that.
The NYC style sandwiches always remind me of Mitch Hedberg's line after ordering a sandwich like this and being asked if he wanted anything else:

"Yeah, A loaf of bread and some other people"

But don't many of you at least have a local market that you can buy subs from when you get that hunger?

We have a great deli in our local Anderson's general store chains and they make awesome sandwiches with unprocessed meat and freshly baked bread. This is for the same price that Subway/ Quizno's/ Blimpies is going to charge you. There has to be more places like this around the country for people to go to.

Nick, have you ever tried Grouchy's Deli on Haynes Bridge? I've seen it, but never been down there.

My Friend's Place is another sandwich place around here. That's where you literally get a sandwich you could make at home but you pay $7 for it.

Don't ever call it a "sangwich" again. There's no excuse for it. You're better than that, Chris Kent.

Complaints are only valid with this style of sandwich if the meat sucks or something. And, if it does, you probably should have gone somewhere else in the first place.

A high-stacked pastrami on rye is the Platonic ideal of "sandwich." All other sandwiches aspire to its level of sandwich-ness. Some, such as a fine Italian sub or a particularly great tomato and mozarella panini, may reach it, but none surpass it. In fact, I'm pretty sure the pastrami sandwich is fucking ashamed to even be mentioned in a thread about Subway.

I'm sorry, NYC pastrami sandwich. I hope we meet again someday soon.

True, we're lucky as hell to have a deli on every corner here in NY. You can have, for example, any kind of bread or roll, four different kinds of turkey, whatever else you want, and lots of it. Even if you've accidentally gone to a crappy deli where the sandwich wasn't the best, it's still miles better than Subway or Quiznos.
