Subway or Quizno's or...?

What's your favorite sandwich and how do you like it?

I like the Veggie on wheat at Subway:
Provolone cheese, avocado, spinach, extra tomatoes and cucumbers, light mayo (sometimes). Nothing else.

I also like the Flatbread Roasted Chicken Salad at Quizno's:
No cheese, extra tomatoes.

I don't go to Togo's too often. The one in my neighbhood is next to a gym so I can never find parking nearby.

I'm not a sandwich person, but if I go, I typically go to Subway. It's all stuff surrounded by bread to me.

Who here remembers Matt & Tony's on Victory Blvd., across the street from Victory Drive-In, around the mid-70's? They had the best cold cuts in the San Fernando Valley.

Of the 3 big generic chains, Togo's used to be the best years ago, but the quality dropped like a rock when they started to expand. Subway and Quizno's are about the same to me, I don't like all the heavy sauces on the quizno's, but it's a little tastier. So it depends on if I'm going for taste or fewer calories.

Once we start talking about local shops, there are so many I don't know where to begin. Hogan's Heroe's, Bay City Deli, some italian deli on Topanga just out of the canyon, some place way out in East LA that has about 200 varieties of beer that I can't remember the name of, really, any local deli destroys any of the generic chains.

My wife likes Subway best so we go to Subway.

If I'm by myself, my favorites are Pelican Deli at the fuel dock in Oceanside Harbor, Red & White Market in South Oceanside or Jimmy's in San Clemente.

6" Triple Play on Wheat, smoked cheddar cheese, mustard, pickles, lettuce, tomato, Italian dressing...2 oz. bag of Rold Gold mini twist pretzels, and a Diet Pepsi with a squirt of lemonade.


My usual, at least once a week.



However, the Pork Loin sandwich from the Cheese Shop in La Jolla is the cat's pajamas.

Also, the actual 'Grab 'n Go' sub from Grab 'n Go is pretty darn good.

I forget which dip is my favorite but I get it with a pickle. I make it a point to hit it up a couple times a year.

Why go to a cookie cutter chain when the small old school italian deli rules?

Cortina's in Anaheim since 1962.

Spicy Ham with everything and a Morretti to chase it.

Quizno's for the zingy taste. Subway's for a promise of less fat.

I vote for Quiznos, even though my mother has a Subway store. But can you imagine, eating subway for whole year + and eating the same old things..

Anyway, I work next to Quiznos and got to know the manager pretty well and get'n freebies
My regular sub @ Quiznos is either traditonal or Roast beef dip

There's a place in Ontario called Grinder Haven. They were the bomb, but inflation got the best of 'em!

Now a chandwich is just a chandwich!

I honestly don't like Quizno's, and I can't say that about any other restaurant. Subway FTW

Subway. Roast beef and turkey on "wheat" bread, with all the vegies, vinegar, mustard, no mayo and no olive oil. Don't really like other places more calories, and no almost no vegies.

Schlotzsky's makes things that actually resemble sandwiches.

Not sure about Subway or Quiznos. They ain't natural.
