Toasters - The reliable standby


It gets shoved to back burner at times because it's either too close to drive to or too far to walk to (at least the whining would indicate as such), but Toasters has been a staple for the GPaK crew since its inception. That said, the cold weather generally keeps us away during the winter months (see whining note above), so with the weather warming it was a welcome return to the sandwich safe house.

I'm a traditionalist, so I stuck with my famous standby, the Turkey Avocado (minus the mayo and onions.) The avocados tasted in season and the "Toasters touch" of balsamic, drizzled on half of the bread was typically spot on.

Thanks to our guest of the week, Mark Reece, I went with something other than water. His gyro special (enjoyable I hear) came with a drink and he went with an Illy coffee so the drink (a peach ginger tea) went my way. Thanks Mark.

Toasters should be avoided during large conventions, especially the bi-annual outdoor retailer
show, but it always packs a punch, is good for laughs ("your dad named you after the worst Cadillac ever") and the walk over from our building can actually be enjoyable (more people watching opportunities).

Man-up possibilities ... 8 (the sandwiches are large)
Quality ... 9 (some of the best ingredients available)
Overall ... 9 (you can never go wrong with Toasters)
