Dagwoods

This is just a short post where I want to tell everyone about my favorite place to buy sandwiches: Dagwoods. Dagwoods is a sandwich, soup and salad place, sort of like Subway, except infinitely better.
I used to really enjoy Subway and saw it as a healthier alternative to traditional fast-food places. However, when I tried Dagwoods, I was totally converted. I liked that it was a Montreal creation that has now expanded to include many franchises throughout the city and now even in Ontario.

The greatest thing about Dagwoods that cannot be said about Subway, is that when you order a sandwich at Dagwoods, they actually slice the cheese and meat fresh when you order it. Some of the slicers are so talented and fast that just watching them do their job is like entertainment while you wait for your food. The fact that the meat and cheese is SO fresh totally makes up for the selection of sandwiches being smaller than Subway's. As for the vegetables, they are also much fresher than at Subway, which I find ironic, since the Subway catchphrase is "Eat Fresh". I would also like to add that Dagwoods doesn't have that weird Subway smell (you know what I mean), so there's no need to worry about being smelly and unappealing after visiting the restaurant. The final thing that I love about Dagwoods is that they have an awesome fidelity card where you can get a free sandwich, soup, or chili after buying a certain amount of sandwiches. Subway no longer has this type of fidelity program and I think that is a real shame.

In conclusion, this place is a real gem and I am absolutely ecstatic that I found one near (well, near enough) to my new apartment! Check it out and you'll never enjoy Subway again, I swear.
