[TomcoPDR]

Tell us you’re Asian without telling us you’re Asian

Gpomp and team_mclaren are like me posting in the BMW threads.

Safeway deli counter made to order = hidden gem

Whatever the Vietnamese sub place in the university is

Kieths deli is always a good belly buster too

More like you posting in Sushi/Dim Sum threads. But for the record my vote for best sandwich is going to La Mano.

[ExtraSlow]

No I love sushi. And I and differentiate between bad and acceptable. That's not fair at all.

Dim sum, well, I like that, but it's overrated.

Was Grandma Lee's a chain? I'm sure I've had that somewhere and it wasn't Saskatoon.

They had a few locations including one in the core way back before any of the renos. No idea if they were franchised.

[R-Audi]

Another option at Holy Grill, their Buffalo Chicken sandwich. Chicken breast is a good 2.5-3" thick.
At the BVS location, it is/was their Tuesday/thursday special.

[Disoblige]

Someone should make a peking duck sandwich, appease all the asians.

Bake Chef! Spent a lot of $ when I was going to school there, great subs

[suntan]

Viet soup and subs would've made my time in school a lot better.

[Gman.45]

Being away from Calgary, I think Thi Thi subs are near the top of the list of things I miss most. They have been around forever, I remember going there when my xwife worked at Telus Tower, and that was in 2002, 20+ years ago now. Great subs, seeing the pics of Viet subs in this thread has me considering flying back next week just to get me some ThiThi.

+1 for Safeway's deli counter, their Turkey/Cran is my go-to here in SK right now.

[suntan]

BAM in the NW.

Van Express downtown in the +15s.

Saigon Highlands has terrible subs. Above average pho though.

[Euro_Trash]

A friend recommended Rita in the Petrofina building and I tried them a week or two back - highly recommend. Sounds similar to what the OP turkey sandwich was like

Is Peking Duck served table side with either a crepe or bao bun not a sando?

[Pauly Boy]

Grandma Lee's is def a franchise. There used to be lots more around in Alberta. The one in Lethbridge was my go-to shop back in University in the early 2000s. Was super disappointed to find out when I moved here it was gone and the whole mall turned into professional offices. Mmm 1" thick bread & mountain of sprouts...

Safeway deli is legit but completely dependant on the staff you get I find - The good ones will go fetch you your desired cheese/bread combo even if it's not on the "numbered list"

I'm up for Comic Con next month, I'm gonna have to get some Thi This now though.

[ExtraSlow]

Safeway has all the ingredients to be great, but yeah depends on location.

My Tho BBQ for the roast pork viet sub and i'm still a fan of Alberta king of subs in Temple NE

[ThePenIsMightier]

I'm a big fan of the Panino sandwiches from the EyeTalian Market. I'm not looking to drop the gloves on someone who says it's not the best, but they sure are good. I've even bought several and frozen them and as gross as that sounds, it works great.
I'd like to figure out what is in them and make them myself. I fluked into buying that spicy veggie spread but I don't know what all those different meats are.

So now a spring roll is a sando?
