Subway

What can I say about Subway. They’re all the same. Like all of these big food giants, they succeed through consistency, in that the Subway you get in Central will be the same that you get in Ma On Shan. However, there can be differences that make one’s experience just that little bit brighter.
Firstly, about Subway itself for those of you who don’t know. They make subs, or submarine sandwiches. These can be 6 inch or foot long, come in a variety of breads, and with a variety of fillings. They are made in front of you, so you can control the make, as in what salad to include, what sauces, etc. Look, enough said, go and get one if you are still curious.
Back to the stores that make eating a Subway just that little bit better…
The Subway store in Chi Fu Landmark is one such treasure. This particular store is probably the only bit of Western dining (other than MacD’s) in the Chi Fu Landmark, and after a long swimming session at the Stanford Club, you will need to fill your boots. However, it is the staff there that make my day, each and every time. They are polite and courteous, never rush you, always call you «ah-​sir». It is basically the antithesis of the other stores which smash through you order like their faces are on fire. Even better, when you get to the cashier, and you suddenly realise you have no cash and forgot they don’t tale Octopus (Subway do not take EPS or Octopus), the lovely ladies in Chi Fu will let you go and eat your sub whilst it’s still toasty warm, and pay them later. That’s the sort of «can do la» attitude I like. These lovely ladies (unlike so many other places in HK) have realised that I am not going to run away and risk imprisonment for a HKD25 sandwich.
Rock on Subway at Chi Fu Landmark, may you long serve me my foot long spicy Italian with extra cheese!
