There were a number of things that I really liked about this place. The first one was the selection. They stay away from the traditional sandwiches and kick it up a notch. All the items are done in a healthier manner. All the ingredients are delivered fresh everyday and nothing is from the previous day. They literally open each shop everyday with no ingredients on the shelves or in the refrigerators. At the end of the day, anything left over is given to shelters that are associated with that store.
The second reason I really liked this place is the philosophy behind everything they seem to be doing. Besides the fresh ingredients and the charity they subscribe to, the packaging is multi useful. They have a vast menu of sandwiches and if each sandwich had its own wrapper, there would be a large amount of packaging material made that is only made for that one item. They package each wrap, baguette, and salad in the same packaging but placed in it's on selective area. So a ham and Brie baguette is wrapped in he same wrapper as the king prawn and avocado baguette. There is less packaging to store on hand which not only keeps the cost down for the store but it also allows the items to be multi useful.
The selection is vast and like I said before, the ingredients are not only fresh but healthier than your average store. They have salads and lots of little nibble sides that I really liked. when I was there, I got a small container of grapes. Right by the counter they also sold little brownie squares for a little bit of sweet to end the meal.
If you see one do yourself a favor and stop in, you'll find you'll look for them when you want a quick bite of something good.
