| - Today I celebrated National Turkey Lover's Day with a Beach Club turkey sandwich in Jimmy John's. It is ironic that turkey which is associated with Thanksgiving falls on Father's Day. Considering that my dad lives all the way up in New York and the Beach Club sub lives down the street, I would visit Jimmy John's.
This marks the very first time that I stepped foot in a Jimmy John's. Going back to our 2013 Seattle vacation, where Jimmy John's had been everywhere, it remained a mental bookmark. It would take National Turkey Lover's Day to erase the bookmark.
In the shadow of Sunset Station at the southeast corner of Sunset and Stephanie next to Five Guys Burgers, I parked my car near a Jimmy John's delivery car. Apparently they deliver. And apparently they have a vast menu.
When I walked inside the long and skinny eatery, there was the large menu on the wall. I appreciated that it was out of the way of customers waiting in line and employees at the counter waiting on me to decide. At Jimmy John's, the customer orders by number. The numbers 1 to 6 correspond to an 8 inch sub where the numbers 7 to 17 correspond to a giant sub with twice the meat served on thick sliced grain bread.
The order process is a breeze. Every sub features their own ingredients. Disparate from a Subway, the customer doesn't pick each ingredient. This expedited the process. After ordering and paying, I poured myself a Coke from the Coke machine, and relaxed before they called my sandwich out.
While waiting, I noticed two types of seating. There were booth seats and high tables with stool chairs. On the walls, I took in the Jimmy John's sense of humor. One picture joked, "If these walls could talk, there would be no need for signs." Another joke was, "Your mouth isn't watering, it's crying for Jimmy John's."
What was not a joke rested on my table: The Beach Club. There between the two slices of thick sliced grain bread was the slices of turkey breast. There were two outer layers of the delectable slices of turkey breast framing overflowing lettuce, avocado spread, sliced cucumbers, and mayo. Tomatoes and provolone cheese complimented the Beach Club. This was one colossal and filling sub. There was absolutely zero need for a side such as a pickle, Jimmy John's chips, or a chocolate chip cookie.
The $8.64 I exchanged for the sub ($6.50)and medium Coke ($1.49) was well worth the money. On the Las Vegas Strip $6.50 falls short of the price for a Starbuck's Frappuccino.
I am satisfied that I finally tried Jimmy John's Subs. All it took was my 2016 National Calendar Day 25 Review Challenge to get my foot inside Jimmy John's. After trying their Beach Club, my foot will be back inside a Jimmy John's Sub shop sometime in the future.
