The Sandwich Guy

 

       Happy Thursday everyone! For today, I was able to finally try TSG or so called The Sandwich Guy at Alphaland Southgate Mall in MRT. There are quite a lot of choices to choose from, ready made sandwiches, though if you are expecting or want to make a customized sandwich you’d be disappointed. Never the less, the choices are pretty good and prices are quite cheaper compared to Subway and Oliver’s Sandwiches. I had this for dinner and I chose the crabstick and Mango sandwich

        First off, for the price the size of the sandwich is pretty big, as for the crabstick it has thin slices of the crabstick. The mango slices were pretty big and it wasn’t too sweet or sour, just right, I’m not sure what dressing they used but it sort of tasted like it has a hint of wasabi. It consists of, lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese. As for the bread, I just wished it was hot enough but then maybe I’ll just ask them next time to toast my bread. But even if the bread was not hot enough, I like the taste of it. The crabstick mango was good, even BF loved it. We will definitely come back for more and try out the others.

 

Till then!

  2. Yup, they have one at megamall pero open space siya as in madadaanan ng tao. They also have 24hour delivery from mon-friday. The crabstick meat are a little bit thin, what makes it chunky are the mangoes, but maybe it would vary depending on the branch.

  3. I think that's horseradish you're tasting but not in wasabi clay (excuse the word) form. Wasabi = horseradish = love! haha! Almon Marina has a similar sandwich but they use chicken and mangoes. I can't remember if the chicken is smoked or something but it really tastes good! It feels raw but it's definitely not raw as raw chicken can poison you. Almon Marina is quite expensive though and I miss eating there. sniff, sniff...

  4. @Lady E: Hmmm, you may be right, since the dressing is white and not greenish. I haven't tried eating there, will put that in my list. What would you recommend other than the sandwich?

  7. if you google The Sandwhich Guy and phlegm, you'd find several entries of it. here are few of them:

    since this incident, i never notice any single walk-in customer, even during lunch times. surprising since i work at eastwood for four years now(and counting) and most of the dining havens here are always full on meal times.

    i don't know if there's truth to the incident, but the way The Sandwich Guy handled it, you would think twice.

  9. @Kitten: My favorite at Almon Marina is the Puttanesca! I've tasted most of their sandwiches - tuna with egg and tuna with pineapples, chicken, beef, etc. etc. They're all great! Their kebabs are also good. Their ice tea is also good. Argh! I'm getting hungry!

  10. @Lady E: That's a nice list, and yeah I'm hungry too, must refrain going down, hahaha. Thanks Lady E!
