Thread: Firehouse Subs

    Firehouse Subs

    I think their business model is pure genius.

    There is only one correct way: freedom. All other solutions are non-solutions.

    It appears that artificial intelligence is at least slightly superior to natural stupidity.

    Our words make us the ghosts that we are.

    Convincing the world he didn't exist was the Devil's second greatest trick; the first was convincing us that God didn't exist.

    Used to live a few miles away from where they got started, and Mike's would be in regular rotation in the take out menu.

    Went there today. Not impressed. A 12", but somehow a bite size, sandwich w/soda and a sour lemon cookie as a substitute for chips - $14 and change. They also have 4" sandwiches. Plenty of firefighting equipment in case a fire would break out. The main TV w/CNN was situated in a way that only employees could watch it. It was almost empty so I occupied the only mini-table that would get sorta OK view. The other two TVs were running sports to convince the population how important being a team player is.

    Incorrect

    A proper New Jersey submarine sandwich is made of one piece of bread split, but not cut, into two halves.

    And no photos exist, because no sane person would fiddle with his phone rather than eat one.

    Humbug.

    That's a bunch of Subway nonsense.

    I was born and raised on the Jersey shore, and no self respecting Jersey sub would ever be on a split sub roll.

    Halved upper and lower bun, baked by Baldanza bakery in Red Bank, wrapped tightly in deli paper, oozing oil and vinegar.

    The reason: so that fresh sliced meats and cheese, right off the slicer, could be built on the lower half.

    None of this slimy pre-cut garbage.

    And no photos exist, because no sane person would fiddle with his phone rather than eat one.
    Well, ya got me there.

    The oil mixed with oregano, and with some hot pepper relish.

    Yes, we can agree on that part.

    Subway to close about 500 U.S. restaurants, while opening 1,000-plus overseas

    https://www.usatoday.com/story/money...nts/550701002/

    Subway Restaurants is planning to shutter an estimated 500 locations in the U.S.

    The Milford, Conn.-based chain wants to focus on better restaurant locations and boosting sales, according to Bloomberg. High on its priorities list is overseas expansion.

    The news comes a year after Subway shut down 800-plus locations. 2016 also saw store closings, Bloomberg reported. The chain currently has close to 26,000 locations in the U.S.

    Subway also expects to open 1,000-plus restaurants around the globe, including in Mexico, the U.K., Germany, South Korea, India and China, CEO Suzanne Greco told Bloomberg.

    With an estimated 44,000 locations in 112 countries, Subway is the largest restaurant chain in the world, according to the company website.

    Subway is known for its sandwiches, but is facing increasing competition. In addition to convenience stores and drug stores starting to stock sandwiches, numerous other chain restaurants serve similar fare — from Panera to McDonald's Signature Crafted Sandwiches to Starbucks, which is making a big play for lunchtime business.

    Subway, whose restaurants are all franchisee-owned and -operated, declined to provide a list of locations on the chopping block.

    I concur. I think it's kinda weird that I order the club deluxe (the club with bacon) and they ask if I want the bacon. I want to ask the sub maker two questions every time I go in there - 1) Do I look like a weirdo who doesn't eat bacon? and 2) Why would I order the club deluxe if I didn't want the bacon?

    This also has been a pet peeve of mine for a while. One of the places I go to always insists on explaining how the pager will go off when my order is ready and where the condiments are when picking the order. Lots of words with no value. This is what a typical verbal exchange between two human beings in this country looks like today. All in the name of providing outstanding levels of customer service concocted in a head of some corporate drone. When those employees get replaced by robots nobody will even notice the difference.

    I'm so pissed.

    So I'm craving Jersey Mikes and run up there to get subs. I order two club supremes. I'm thinking it's going well because doesn't ask me if I want bacon. I'm waiting and watching him make the first sub and he starts to close it up without bacon. I stop him and remind him about the bacon. At that point I inform him that I want bacon on the other sub. Now, the second sub was easy. Just put everything on it. I was paying and not watching the dumb $#@! and guess what? It's missing the bacon and half the toppings.


    Here's what I order. They need to just put the $#@!ing bacon on it. When I calm down, I'm calling and complaining.

    #9 Club Supreme
    Roast beef, turkey, swiss, applewood smoked bacon and mayo

    This one-of-a-kind club takes savory to a whole new level. Our premium quality Swiss cheese, Certified Angus top round roast beef, turkey, freshly grilled Applewood smoked bacon, and mayo creates a mouthwatering medley of flavor.
