Simply Sandwich scores points for its smart packaging, and for the quantity and quality of their servings, though the fillings (roast chicken, tuna salad, ploughmans) evoke a sense of déjà vu. The bread, invariably (but not always) softer, tastes fresher than most. For variety, order the triple packs ($8), which hold three triangles of thickly cut bread with fillings such as avocado, alfalfa and blue cheese (barely any in our order); cheese and chutney; chunky egg salad; poached salmon; very salty smoked salmon and thick lashings of cream cheese; and ham and cheese. The sandwiches come in different breads – grains, rye and brown – though we were hard-pressed to be able to distinguish between them.
Simply Sandwich was included in our recent Eating Al Desko - Working Lunch feature.
