Denver Egotist: Get Off My Turf
Twice.  Count ‘em, TWICE today, The Denver Egotist reported on sandwich shops launching new websites. The first was on Jimmy John’s launching their new website: The second was The Corner Bakery’s new website: Um, excuse me, but this is MY domain.  Do yourself and everyone else a favor and leave the sandwich reporting to the professionals - which is me.

I’m Serious About this Toasting Shit
Getting my Turkey Sandwich toasted the right way has been what some might call a “hot button” lately.  I want my Turkey Sandwich toasted the right way, is that too much ask? My latest issue is with Which Wich.  I stopped by there a couple days ago and got two sandwiches: one to eat there and one for later.  The bread on the sandwich was toasted just fine, but the Turkey was cold and it just didn’t feel right. Now, some of you might say, “I like it that way.  I like the hot side hot and the... Read Full Story
What Ever Mojo Schlotzsky’s Had, They’ve Lost It
I remember when I was first introduced to Schlotzsky’s.  I wasn’t fanatical about their sandwiches, but I would always make a point to swing by if I was near their location on Manchester Road in St. Louis.  Then, when I moved to Austin, which is the HOME of Schlotzsky’s I got a little more excited about their stuff.  There seemed to be a certain energy in this particular Schlotzsky’s location (South First and Barton Springs area).  They had iMacs in there so you could jump on the internet...

Toast the Damn Sandwich!
There is an epidemic that is sweeping the Sandwich industry.  We’ve already had one casualty in Quizno’s and we’re in the process of losing another one in Schlotzsky’s. But WE are the victims here.  And the worst part - it doesn’t need to happen. Here’s the issue: Our sandwiches are being toasted less and less. The last two days, I’ve had a Turkey Sandwich from Schlotzsky’s or Quizno’s.  Both are obviously toasted less/faster than they were as soon as 6 months ago.  And definitely less than...

I Went to the HEB Today
Grocery stores in Denver pretty much suck.  First of all they make you use those fucking frequent shopper cards to get the discounts so they can stalk you and know what you buy.  I refuse to carry them.  I’ll ask for a new one every time,  I don’t care. Second of all, most of the checkers and baggers are little punk-ass fuckwads and never do any fucking work.  Don’t worry about it guys, I actually enjoy bagging my fucking groceries. I digress. Third of all, they don’t carry Boar’s Head deli... Read Full Story
The Biggest Game in the History of Turkey (Sandwiches)
The Turkey Sandwich Report has quietly observed Euro08 and watched our team, Turkey, advance to the semi-finals.  Not that we jumping on the bandwagon - we’ve always been on it - we are just getting a little more vocal about our support. GO TURKEY! This is more than a battle of Turkey vs. Deutchland.  It is Turkey Sandwiches vs. Brautwurst.  It’s triptophan vs. cholesterol.  It’s Constantinople vs. Berlin. Cem Bilge Lives!

The Smiling Moose is in the House
Dinner Roll from Smling Moose
I had a full day to myself today.  Worked from home and had dinner by myself too.  That meant that I could do whatever the hell I wanted for dinner - and did I ever take advantage of it. First off, the Smiling Moose has moved into the neighborhood and I had not officially welcomed them, so I swung by there for a large Dinner Roll.  This is a damn good sandwich since it is part Turkey Sandwich, part Cheesesteak and Part French Dip.  How sweet is that? Second, I swung by Wendy’s.  Since I was... Read Full Story
Whole Foods’ Turkey Sandwiches Just Not Meeting My Expectations
Let me start by saying that Whole Foods’ pizza is the shit.  I love that stuff.  So maybe their pizza has set an level of expectation that are so incredibly high, that their sandwiches just can’t get their.  Phil Mickelson isn’t a bad golfer, he just sucks compared to Tiger Woods - that’s all. I got the Country Club Club from Whole Foods today.  I actually wanted the pizza, but I haven’t had a Turkey Sandwich in a while, so I thought I better eat one, so all you sons of bitches stop whining...

You Got Free Soup, I’m There
I had a BUSINESS meeting in Philadelphia last week.  We decided to make it a lunch appointment and chose McGillin’s Ale House in Downtown Philadelphia.  (They call it “Center City” there) McGillin’s is old.  They opened this son of a bitch in 1860. When I arrived for my meeting a little earlier than the person I was meeting, the hostess (who was also old) said the sweetest words these ears have ever heard: “We have free soup.  Today’s soup is Turkey Noodle.  Feel free to serve yourself...

Cheeba Hut Rolls One for The Turkey Sandwich Report
I’m sorry that I couldn’t share all of the details with you in advance, but I took a meeting with Cheeba Hut today.  It was all really hush-hush, but they invited me up to Fort Collins to talk Turkey Sandwiches. To be blunt, they were uber-impressed with my Turkey Sandwich knowledge and prowess.  So much in fact, that they wanted to get together and see if we could spark up some ideas.  And spark we did.  I gave them three solid ideas for sandwiches that they should add to the menu and from...
