Sandwich Report: Tuesday, 2007-05-22

Jimmy John's (Loop: Monroe)

Beach Club (#12) on Wheat
Sweet & Sour Chips

How can you beat fresh sandwiches with great bread? Jimmy Johns has been my de facto lunch for a while, supplanting Potbelly's for the time being. I only wish I could get the wheat bread after 1:00pm. The french roll is good and soft, but the wheat is something else.

Pushing the sandwiches over the edge are the fresh trimmings like tomatoes and avocado spread. Jimmy John's doesn't use the same pitiful pale tomatoes manhandled by those "sandwich artists" at Subway.

I recommend any of their chips. Their cookies are decent, but not quite as good (or as fresh) as Potbelly's.
