Quick service and very flavorful food! I really love trying new things and this sandwich was so much different than anything I’ve ever had. All the flavors came together perfectly to deliver a well balanced, sweet but savory sandwich. My one little gripe is the toasting of the bread. The bread was so over-toasted that it was cutting up my mouth and took away from the enjoyment of the sandwich. It wasn’t burnt just so crispy and rough that I would definitely ask for the bread not to be toasted if I return. - Brendan Black
