Sandwiches & Subs – San Francisco Grub

Luna

We had lunch at a great place called Luna in the Castro. It’s right next to the Body Shop, and you walk in and they seat you in a garden in the back which is a great atmosphere.

One of their specialties is Mimosas, so we got the “Mimo Combo” where you pick two juices (we got peach and orange) to mix. They had an attractive selection of food, and the pasta sounded good, but in the end I went for the corned beef Ruben which came with a pickle and some great ultra-skinny fries.

The ruben really fell apart in my hands and was a mess, but that’s mostly because it had a huge amount of meat. (See picture to the right.)

I was still a bit hungry at the end so we ended up splitting their Chocolate Crunch which was a chocolate cake with some sort of special whipped cream (it started with an M?) and toffee.

Quizno’s again

So I’m a big dork but I grabbed the exact same meal again for lunch today, except I got sour cream Lay’s instead of Dorito’s, and I also got a chocolate chip cookie. The Carbonara is really growing on me, today it tasted pretty different from hte last time, it had more of some sort of sauce that added a very interesting flavor. The bread also seemed better, perhaps because I went earlier in the day.

Quizno’s

I didn’t have much time before 106 Miles down in Palo Alto so I grabbed a quick bite from the Quizno’s between my office and house. I really fell mixed about that place, sometimes the food is decent but other times it’s been pretty mediocre. Quizno’s can actually vary quite a bit from location to location. I decided to try something new and got a regular Chicken Carbonara on white bread with Dorito’s and a Dr Pepper (of course). The sub actually ended up being really good, I’ll have to have that again. It was a little pricey for Quizno’s, but still cheap in comparison.

I didn’t get it this time, but last time I got the chocolate cookie they have and it was just like I like — soft with big chocolate chunks. Best served with warm milk. (Preferably that isn’t already expired, whoops!)
