not just sandwiches posted by imani , Saturday, October 31, 2009 at 10:14 AM, in Labels: culinary curiousities

early this afternoon, nosh and i went to glorietta (after my shift) to 'search' for a gift for my sister, whose birthday we celebrated yesterday. we went around for hours and hours but failed to 'secure' one before we felt the need to nourish our ourselves. and since we cannot seem to decide on what to eat, we went to the one place that offer variety...subway.

subway actually refers to an underground path but this subway is a haven for those who seeks the freedom to satiate their craving. as we walked in, we cannot help but feel that it is like walking into your own pantry - with only the best, freshest ingredients to make one hell of a good sandwich.

nosh picked the tuna sandwich while i devoured a steak and cheese sandwich. aside from the many fillings you can choose from, you also have the option to put them all in either italian, wheat, honey oats and parmesan oregano bread.

the tuna sandwich makes for a very light and healthy meal (despite it being served on a six-inch bread). nosh opted to have all the veggies (except jalapenos) and a drizzle of vinegrette. i took a bite and knew right on that she made an excellent choice.

i, on the other hand, am a true 'carnivore' by heart...so i went for the steak. i asked the sandwich guy to put only onions, tomatoes, pickles and (a lot) of jalapenos on the loaf. it was a treat for my palate! that particular sandwich goes well with barbecue sauce (in case anyone of you wanted to try). by the time i was done eating, i was perspiring and felt like i just gave all my taste buds a death sentence.

despite this, i didn't feel queasy at all - i was happy with what i ate and i can't wait to get myself a sub again.
