S----y Incidences

Hello,

So there is no customization at Togo's?

You can ask them to take things off, add them as you will.

My favourite is a #9 - Pastrami. Now, anyone with taste knows you do not use Mayo with Pastrami - it ain't done.

So I ask for - and get - yellow mustard and their dijon mustard. Similarly, I have to ask for cheese (provolone) but it's easy enough to get.

Hello,

But I am wondering, where are Togo's primarily? The southwest, the northeast, Oregon, Florida, Iowa, Richmond?

HOw is a Gyro not a geniuine Gyro? It's minced up beef and lamb carved off a huge spinning thing, lettuce, tomato, and taztaki sauce that makes my breath smell like ass but tastes so good. It's hard to fake!

Also, Slack's Hoagie Shack > Subway. God I love you, New Jersey.

Here are a few incidences that occured during my tenure as a 'Sandwich Artist'. (how I hate that title)

6: Wiggers, all of them. High-school idgits acting hardcore.

Had someone turn in a aplication with "Sancwich Artisan". Had to explain to my my boss it was the Subway guy, and that was the actual job title.

I had a customer today, as I was ringing him up 3 Wiggers came up, and actually said "Waz UP my N-----" (Shock, Horror, The urge to hide under the counter)
The customer was an older black man, with graying hair, in a suit and tie. Nothing about him said "homie" or "pimp".
He recovered before I did: "Do I know you young man?"
"No Man..."
"Son, I would recomend that you never use that word again."
"Damn man we wuz just saying Wuz Up.." then they left muttering how uncool the guy was.
The customer then turns to me and says: "My Wife and I have a word for kids like that: Irritating."

I know I never heard of Togo's before coming to California, so I'm guessing it's mostly the West Coast of the U.S.

I've never seen Togo's either, but I'm fairly sure that only southern folks will recognize the sub place I'd recommend: Publix deli. It's a supermarket deli, normal as can be but the Best sub sandwiches I've ever had. Ever. Slather on those olives!

Thing is, I've seen the line get pretty darn long and I don't think I've ever noticed a single SC. Maybe the subs are just that good?

Explaining the differences with gyros is actually quite easy. First thing is substitutions, such as beef instead of the proper gyro meat, also fake tzatziki sauce. Another thing that's argued about, is that within the Greek community (used to work in a Greek run pizzeria), is that its only a gyro ifn you make your own tzatziki sauce, and the meat is cut from a cone on a spit. Its possible to by all the ingredients frozen and ready to go, even precut gyro meat strips, and these are often used by smaller shops, particularly non-Greek shops that want to add gyros to their menu for a few more sales.

There's one of the two things I miss from NJ, good subs and good pizza, both of which are few and far between out here.

Western I believe, according to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Togo's) the first one was opened in San Jose, CA in the 60s. While Dunkin Donuts owned it, it expanded somewhat, but kind of haphazardly I think, and not very much, at last count they had 350 stores, which isn't much.

A-freakin-men to that!!! I lived in Ocala for two years and I tell my mom (who still lives there) that the ONLY thing I miss about living in FL is the Publix subs!

Then I add 'besides you and dad' so she doesn't get pissed off.

I like me my Subway.

Footlong* turkey on Italian or wheat, just lettuce, tomatoes, onions and salt and pepper.

*half for lunch, half for dinner.

I cannot stand Quizno's subs. I'll go to Jerry's subs & pizza before going to Quiznos.

As for Subway, that is just pure unadulterated LOVE!!!!

I love to buy me either a footlong on Italian or Italian herbs with cheese. The meat has to be roast beef with NO cheese at all. I like to have onions, tomatoes & black olives added. Mayo (but not enough to drown my sub) and a sprinkling of black pepper.

Where I live, the footlongs are $5 every day. It's a great deal.

Heh. Wish more of those idiots would get put in their places like that more often.

Around here (southern California), the Subways usually have a deal called the Rainy Day Special. Any time it is actually raining, you can get 3 footlong subs for $10. "Raining" is usually defined as "enough water falling from the sky to leave the pavement wet."

We used to get the seafood and crab, but they stopped carrying that.

Now we get a meatball with parmesan on Italian herbs and cheese bread and a melt with lettuce, pickles, olives, a stripe of mayo, and enough salt, pepper, oil, and vinegar to give it some kick on white.

God.. I can imagine that would bring in a whole heap of cheap and nasty SCs..

At Subway I usually get turkey on white with lettuce, tomato, pickles and olives, oil and vinegar, salt and pepper. Yummy.

But the roast beef sub at Jimmy John's? Lovely real rare roast beef with tomatoes and mayo..Heaven!
