I talk shit about subway because i have to pay to watch someone who's usually ugly with gross fingers make me a sandwich i don't want to eat, where as I could make a sandwich I do want to eat and pay less money.

Try this:

1. Take the money you would spend at Subway for a week, go to the grocery store and buy the ingredients you enjoy having a sandwich artist at Subway put together. (buy higher quality ingredients though, which is probably by default what you are doing unless you are buying Carl Buddig meat)

2. Make yourself a sandwich, it takes 5 minutes.

3. Slap yourself for eating that Subway shit.

I aint asking you to eat it, you can hate it and not eat Subway all you want.... my point was Subway is a crappy fast food place.... all fast food is low quality food.... all fast food workers are bottom of the rung people...

Oh and I don't bring my lunch... I like to get out of the office for lunch.... so I can fight pigeons

If your recommendation was based on the food I would have ignored.... but now I feel I must make this venture

Nah it isn't that.... I have had Chik fil a a couple of times, food was alright, I just never got the hype.... they talked it up when one came to the UIUC Union Hall cafeteria.... and the food was OK.... then they put one in a few years ago in Orland Park and at the time I was working landscaping for my Uncle and he got super excited (even though he never ate it before) and so we went for lunch and again it was just OK IMO.

I would eat there, but I would not travel far or put it above other fast food really.... but the fact there are some hotties working there seems like it may be worth the trip lol

shit, i forgot that i go to chick fil a at least once a month.

I'll have to try out Halo Asian Mix one of these days.

Seriously no one goes to Roti? It's like a Mediterranean Chipotle and it's super healthy and filling. You just have to go outside of normal lunch hour to avoid the douchebag rush.

I will have to try it then, but only if you try Oasis Cafe. Homemade grape leaves!


Chick fil a has the best spicy chicken sandwich and nuggets with real meat. Dare to compare the nugget ingredients to McNuggets.

That's fine with me. I prefer to be in control of my own side of the car.

It's deli meat on bread not a gourmet restaurant.

When you use HFCS to make a sandwich it goes down to the level of McDonalds. Cough up a few quarters more and go to potbelly.

Support your local delis too.

Especially in Chicago where you have a handful of awesome polish delis that didn't need to be told not to use MSG, HFCS, or gluten fillers.

When anyone goes shopping for your favorite sausage type, look at the labels for all of them. I don't think Johnsonville makes a sausage that doesn't have MSG. And I'm not sure who else doesn't either, but you'll be hard pressed to find the Polish brands with any of that crap.

I got dragged to a Roti for lunch like 2nd or 3rd day on my first job and I had no clue wtf the place was so the guys taking me there just told me what to try and I did.

It was alright, I could eat it again if I had to.... but it wasn't anything that made me want to go back.

No offense to Roti but sometimes I think downtown people hype certain lunch places even when they are not that good.... I am more thinking of like the healthy food places such as Protein Bar or Freshii.... I remember people at my old office talking up places like that.... tried Protein Bar once, got a barrito..... tasted like disappointment.
