Best sandwich ever?
I've been frequenting my favorite coffee shop a lot lately.
Why is that unusual, or even post-worthy? Well, I don't like coffee.
That's putting it mildly. I find the swill revolting! Seriously, I think you could mix motor oil and dirt, heat it up, and have something more palatable to drink.
It does smell good though. You'd think if it smells good it would taste good. I guess that doesn't work though, because there are some foods that smell pretty bad, but taste awesome.
Like cheese, for instance.
Anyway, I popped in, dumped my iBook on a table, flirted with "Amy" for a while, and decided to ask for her recommendation for a change. I've been eating there a lot, and I'd hate to go into a rut that forced me to change eating venues!
Her first recommendation turned out to be a sandwich I'd never tried there. She recommended adding ranch dressing to it, but I had to nix that. I don't care for ranch either. Even on fries.
So, I tried the Italian sub.... and, it was incredible! It's the best sandwich I've had in a loooong time! It was so flavorful, wonderful!
Words escape me! That's how great it was! Too bad words often escape me... that's nothing new! =^P
This flirting with Amy is great fun as well. It's interesting how this girl who was so emotionless and serious when I first came back to this coffee house has brightened up so much! I'm impressed that she remembers what I order to drink. I suppose that is predictable, but as a non-coffee/non-soft drink consumer, there aren't many options outside of Chai tea.
Unless I wanted the extreme sugar high that would come with an Italian creme soda.
Hmmm... that would have gone with the sandwich. ;^)
