Italian Style Sandwich

I had to grab something quick for lunch yesterday. Glad I saw a stall of The Sandwich Guy in the building so I decided to just have a sandwich.

menu
Lots of choices on their menu but I ended up ordering the Italian Style sandwich (P75).


As per the description, it has ham and pepperoni slices with some veggies and cheese. It also comes with a dressing but I chose to just have it with mustard and catsup instead of a mayonnaise-based dressing.


The use wheat bread in all their sandwiches. But instead of a regular-shaped one, it's hexagon... I don't know why, but probably just to make it different.



Verdict: it was just a so-so sandwich, something like I can prepare at home. The pepperoni lacked a certain spiciness which makes a the sandwich bland if you do not put any condiment. I still prefer Subway's Spicy Italian sandwich compared to this.

The Sandwich Guy uses organic ingredients, that's why I love them. I'm into the peanut butter banana flavor. ;)

Weird that the bread is hexagonal. I'd like my sandwich regular-shaped. Hehe Too bad that you found it disappointing. Makes me sad when food disappoints me because I expect it to make me happy. Hehehe Maybe you can try Earl's or Subway? :)

I love sandwiches. I can eat nothing but sandwiches for months without ever feeling weak due to lack of rice in my diet. I did it while in NYC.

Anyway, the Subway sandwiches are good, although they do not have the hero (softer baguette) here in the Philippines.

I often make my own as you do. They have excellent German and Swiss delis here in Panglao where I can buy cold cuts like pastrami and ham.

Nice photography, btw :)

Despite it being so-so, your photo made it look appetizing :)

I love good sandwiches, so I'll take your word for it that these are just so-so. :P I agree with Jellybelly though, your photos make the sandwich look appetizing. :)
