Quiznos Subs (CityLink Mall)

Quiznos Subs first started in Denver, Colorado more than 30 years ago, specialises in toasted subs. Today, it is the second biggest sandwich chain after Subway with more than 4,500 stores. Their recipe to success includes 

- premium quality ingredients (butcher quality meat, all natural cheese, chef-designed signature sauces, toasted artisan bread 
- everything gets toasted (not cold)
- Every order made to order (can request for extra cheese, bacon, switch ingredients)
Quiznos Subs opened its first branch in Singapore in 2009. Currently, there are 6 Quizno Subs stores island wide. Visited Quiznos Subs at CityLink Mall on a Sunday at 11am. It was still early and we were their first customers. 
How to order
Four simple steps teaching customers how to order.
Step 1: Choose the sub and size (6 / 9 / 12 inch)

Step 2: Choose your Artisan Bread (White Bread, Brown Bread or Rosemary Parmesan)

Step 3: Make it a Combo 
             - Add $2.90 for Small Fountain Drink + Chips / Cookie / Soup (cup size)
             - Add $3.80 for Small Fountain Drink + Side Salad

Step 4: Having Here or Takeaway 
Pepper Bar
Pepper Bar where you can add on pepperoncinis, jalapenos, banana peppers, pickles or sauce.

I ordered a Signature Subs - Classic Italian ($6.50) and made it a combo by topping up $2.90. I chose the Broccoli Cheese Soup.
Broccoli Cheese Soup
The Broccoli Cheese Soup was surprisingly yummy. It was not too thick nor was it too dilute. In addition, in terms of flavour it was just nice. Creamy with flavours of broccoli and cheese, and also small chunks of broccoli. What a good start to the meal!
Signature Subs - Classic Italian $6.50
The Classic Italian (Signature Subs) consists of honey ham,pepperoni, served with salami, lettuce, tomato, olives, red onion, mozzarella and red wine vinaigrette in Rosemary Parmesan. I asked for extra lettuce. (greedy me was tempted to ask for more ham, tomato, cheese and pepperoni. But I was worried that the sandwich will 'explode'). The sandwich was full of ingredients and as evidenced in the photo above, one can hardly close it! The Rosemary Parmesan (bread) was toasted just before serving. It was soft on the inside but a tad too hard on the outside. I quite like how the red wine vinaigrette complement the sandwich, 
Signature Subs - Honey Bourbon Chicken $6.50
The Honey Bourbon Chicken (Signature Subs) consists of chicken, tomato, lettuce, red onion, honey mustard and zesty grilled sauce served in Rosemary Parmesan. I did not try this, but was told that the chicken meat was well-marinated and tender.

I quite like my first Quiznos Subs experience. I am not a sandwich expert. But although Quiznos Subs seems to be $0.50 to $1 more expensive than Subway, its ingredients are fresh and you can ask for extra at no extra cost. Moreover, the Broccoli Cheese Soup makes the cost even more justifiable! (well that's my personal opinion). Looks like Quiznos Subs will be giving Subway a run for its money!

Chew on this: The name Quiznos was chosen because the letters Q and Z were the least used in English Alphabet.
