| - I was so excited as I saw this place being built - what could be better than an entire restaurant dedicated to my favourite sandwich? Seriously - what could be better?
I've eaten here on numerous occasions, and although I so want it to be amazing, it always leaves me a little cold. Service is slow, and for someone on a lunch break such as myself that is not appreciated. The sandwich combinations are interesting from "the classic" (you can guess at that one) to "the beast" (loaded with turkey cold cuts, bacon, tomato, onions and other yummy stuff) - yet I have a very hard time actually considering what they make to be grilled cheese sandwiches. Yes, they are sandwiches. Yes, they contain melted cheese. Yes, they are grilled. But still... there's something a miss. The presses they use to make the sandwich smush the bread into hard crusty boards, and are more reminiscent of paninis than a traditional grilled cheese.
The flavour combinations are tasty, and the atmosphere is great. And once I accepted that when I go there, I wont be getting wonder bread with processed cheese (I know it's sad - but that's sometimes all I want) I can accept their sandwiches for what they are. Which isn't quite what I want, but not bad either.
