Seasonal Sandwich Search - Two Fifty Square, Juniors Deli and a shout out to the Lidl Sandwich!

Our Christmas Sandwich competion continued with 3 more sandwiches.

Christmas Sandwich number 7 was in Two Fifty Square (Rathmines) and it included the "moist maker" which was an extra slice of bread in the middle of the sandwich smothered in gravy.

It was a good sizeable sandwich that came with salad on the side and a dipping jus. But with a price tag of €16 it was always going to lose on price.


The scores for the Two Fity Square were 

  1. Price.                                     Enid 3/5      Ciaran 3/5
  2. Ingredients                            Enid 4/5      Ciaran 4/5
  3. Construction / aesthetic.      Enid 4/5      Ciaran 4/5
  4. Atmosphere/ Experience       Enid 2/5      Ciaran 2/5
  5. Tradition                                Enid 4/5      Ciaran 4/5
With a total of 33 out of 50, Two Fifty Square achieved a good score,
Sandwich no. 8

It was then on to Juniors Deli for sandwich no. 8. 

We had high hopes for this one as Ciaran had talked it up, having enjoyed Juniors sandwiches before. Both of us removed the rocket which we felt over powered the sandwich and In think the score reflects how it was over all.

The scores for Juniors were 
  1. Price.                                     Enid 4/5      Ciaran 4/5
  2. Ingredients                            Enid 3/5      Ciaran 3/5
  3. Construction / aesthetic.      Enid 3/5      Ciaran 4/5
  4. Atmosphere/ Experience       Enid 2/5      Ciaran 3/5
  5. Tradition                                Enid 3/5      Ciaran 3/5
With a total of 32out of 50, Juniors got a score lower than anticipated.
An honourary sbout out goes to the Lidl Sandwich which is on sale for €2.99 and is a great sandwich for this price point.
We didn't score this sandwich becuase we ate it at home unlike all of the other sandwiches which we ate inhouse. I reckon it would have scored well!

So that brings an end to the Annual Ciaran & Enid Christmas Sandwich Competion.

I'll announce the winner in my next blog post - but you can can read about the other sandwiches here.
