Takeout Revisits - Rubicon Deli (UTC) and SuperNatural Sandwiches

Man, it's been a pretty hot couple of days! In fact, I read that we're having record heat here in San Diego....like 25 degrees above normal!

Anyway, I couldn't bear to do a post on the place I was thinking of....instead, let's do what I had for lunch the last two days at work....sandwiches......so here goes.

Rubicon Deli:

Well, it's been a while since I've done a post on Rubicon. I placed my order online and like always, it was ready when I arrived.

Being the boring soul that I am, I got my usual, the "Super Mario" with Crispy Onions. Deciding to change things up the slightest bit; I got the sandwich on Blue Cheese Bread instead of my usual Garlic Cheese Bread. Since it had been almost a year since I last visited....like almost every place else; I believe the prices would have been increased; but it was still the same - half sandwich for $9.79, Crispy Onions for 75 cents more.

The sandwich did look a bit odd when I opened it up......I believe that this was made with the end piece of the loaf.

Still, this was still quite good; though the "crispy onions" weren't as crispy as usual...even with the ten minute (or less) drive back to the office. The nice mild sweetness and sour tones of the Balsamic Glaze; the sweet red pepper tapenade, crisp - peppery arugula, the Asiago......this did me just right for lunch.

I'll definitely be back again during warm weather.....

SuperNatural Sandwiches:

SuperNatural has been a regular stop for me during these times, though not always for sandwiches. This time though; I went with the Kirin ($12.25) and Garlic Fries ($4.50). As always, I was able to order online before opening time and my order was ready for pick-up at 1110 when I arrived.

As always, the bread was still crisp-crackly when I got back to the office, the shrimp perhaps a bit tougher than usual, but passable....for some reason, I enjoy the lup cheong in this sandwich.

The fries were more crisp than usual; which I enjoyed.

This was an enjoyable and quite filling lunch.

I was sad to hear that the Little Italy location has closed and SuperNatural is back to a single location.
