Quiznos' Steak & Peppercorn
Quiznos recently went on a "Steak & Peppercorn" craze. Listen to NewsTalk1010, you will hear "Quiznos' $2.99 Steak & Peppercorn deal!", walk on the bus, you will see, "it ends May 3rd!", and open MetroNews, it will scream out, "only at participating locations." BUT is it worth it?
The "$2.99" is a noose that lures your feet as your hungry eyes glees over a large poster containing lies. Lies of steaks, lies of peppercorn, and lies of a guarantee that "toasted tastes better!"
Inputs from lunch ensure that Quiznos got nothing over Subway, and I full-heartedly agree. If the sub shop was in store to reinvent cardboard bread, BEWARE - Quaker's Rice Cake already is miles ahead. The dough was not tough, it just simply lacked the wholesome essence of freshness that Subway advocates, and alas, I say that when possible, "Eat Fresh".

Jetson's Juicy Burger
The burger bar is operated by singing teenagers who claims they have heard "Waving Flag" eight thousand times, and their rendition proves their claim as valid.
Some cons:
Though it is considered a fast-food restaurant, expect to wait. The "Cadillac burger," which comes with bacon and cheese was tossed onto the grill after we placed our order. Simultaneously, an order of "Chili Fries" was placed. Funnily, the fries got its smother of Chili while the Cadillac sizzled away, which begs the imagination of soggy fries. We waited and watched the bun get toasted, garnished, and sit sadly as the Cadillac burn away. In total, the wait took about seven minutes.
The Chili fries is a surprise at every bite as excruciatingly hard and depressingly soggy bits are available in intermixed temperatures. I blame the early pour of the Chili for the overall catastrophe.
The burger, as my friend described it, "is like eating out of your own backyard," and I asked, "So it's good?" to which he replied, "I'm eating it because it's already paid for."
Take-Aways:
Should I bring a date here: If you had just learned your primary colours, yes, but then again, McDonald's has got that covered.
Atmosphere: Casual and definitely jeans acceptable, heck even frat boys in hoodies and pajamas pants will get served. A lot of natural lights and mirrors, so ladies, avoid excessive makeup or the lack thereof as blemishes and pores will be revealed at Jetson's.
