REVIEW: Turkey Feast by Boots
Well, I’m in Canary Wharf again and I decided today’s the day to got to Eat. So I went to Eat. And it is now Veggie Pret. Which I hadn’t noticed for around six months of being in Canary Wharf twice a week. I noticed the Veggie Pret when it opened, but never realised that…

REVIEW: Turkey Feast by Aldi
Just a quick one today (matron). I’ve gotta get going to the Christmas party and I’m eating this ridiculously late. I went to Greggs today but they had run because it was after 11.30, and then everything in Nero needing cooking and I didn’t have time so I ended up in Aldi. I didn’t even…

REVIEW: Festive Turkey by Lidl
It’s Thursday! And you know what that means? It was Slimming World night last night. After eating a Christmas sandwich for lunch Monday to Wednesday, and drinking a ridiculous amount of booze on Friday and Saturday (not to mention drunken junk food), I figured I’d be putting on some weight this week. And to be…

REVIEW: Pret’s Christmas Lunch by… Pret (duh)
It’s the one you’re all waiting for (except the one person who has requested Greggs over Whatsapp). I’m in Canary Wharf today, and they have a Veggie Pret. But before you get your Brexit voting knickers in a twist, fear not! There are 478,000 normal Prets here as well, so I’ve gone for their traditional…

2012: Christmas Sandwich Round Up
Oh hey there. So the Christmas sandwich thing kind of trailed off the week before Christmas because I spent most of it drunk. And then most of the Christmas break drunk. I didn’t even think about taking photos of any sandwiches. But for the sake of some sort of closure, I have ranked the Chirstmas sandwiches I did…

Sandwich #7: Roast Turkey by Uppercrust
£4.39 – British roast turkey breast, stuffing, bacon, cranberry sauce, apple sauce, white baguette. I have exhausted all of the sandwich places close to the office so had to venture further afield in the cold today and went to Uppercrust at Victoria station. A bit of a trek but that’s how dedicated I am to…

Sandwich #6: Turkey Feast by Boots
£2.60 – Turkey breast and pork, sage & onion stuffing with mayonnaise, cranberry sauce, sweetcured bacon and spinach on malted bread. Today I’ve been to Boots. I was disappointed to find there wasn’t a Christmas sandwich in the Jamie Oliver range, because I’d like that. Again I nearly went for a Christmas sandwich triple pack,…

Sandwich #5: Turkey Feast by Marks and Spencer
£3 – Marinated roast British turkey, pork and chestnut stuffing, spiced cranberry chutney with smoked British bacon with mayonnaise on malted brown bread. I understand some of you have been waiting for this one, so HERE WE GO! I was tempted to buy the Christmas sandwich triple pack but I don’t like salmon so traditional…

Sandwich #4: Christmas Full Works by Eat
£3.50 – Turkey, smoked ham, pork, sage and onion stuffing, cranberry sauce, reduced fat mayonnaise, mixed leaf salad, lack pepper, malted granary bread. I have been accused of being quite negative about the chains I have bought sandwiches from so far, and that this blog might be a stand against franchises and globalisation. But let’s…
