So here it is.....the winner of the annual Christmas Sandwich Search!
As you have seen in the past few blogs, myself and PIGSY have been on the hunt for the best Christmas Sandwich in Dublin. In order to complete this task we both put forward two places offering Christmas sandwiches and set off to eat in these places and sample their sandwich offering. We also included last year's winner on the list so this meant that we had 5 places to visit in the month of December.
The five cafe's / restaurants are:
KC Peaches (last year's winner)
Gerard's Deli (Enid's nomination)
Greenville Deli (Enid's nomination)
247 Deli (Ciaran's nomination)
Junior's Deli (Ciaran's nominaton)
Unfortunately we didn't get to visit 147 Deli due to certain circumstances but we did get to visit some bonus venues that were not on the list above. With marks out of 50, our scores for each Christmas Sandwich offering are outlines below (in no particular order):
KC Peaches 28/50
Farmer Brown's 36/50
Greenville Deli 38/50
Itsa Bagel 31/50
Gerard's Deli 29/50
Starbucks 33/50
Juniors Deli 32/50
Two Fifty Square 33/50
You can read back over detailed reviews of the sandwiches here but with the rating not just based on taste there are alot of variables that can effect where a sandwich ranks.
But the sandwich that won out in the end, was....drumroll please......
I'm not surprised that this sandwich won, as it was actually the only one that we went and got a second time over the month of December and it was also the one that we spoke positively the most about.
It's been a fun event to do in the month of December and it also pushes us to try new places. We are creatures of habit so we tend to over visit venues we like rather than risk giving a chance to alternatives.
Let me know what you think of our fun little competition and whether you do anything like this also!
