Since I came to the UK, I am amazed at how many sandwiches I have eaten. They are quite easily accessible in most cafes, but Pret A Manger does stand out in the sandwich department. They have very unique combinations of sandwiches, and I have come across a few favorites. One in particular is a falafel and hummus sandwich. It is actually served cold, and has a number of mediterranian fixings. It is extremely flavorful and delicious and remarkably, it is not dry(like I thought a cold falafel would be). Another favorite is a chicken avocado salad. The avocado in it is extremely fresh(it is chunky and green, it is not a guacamole). It is smooth, creamy and instead of mayo, it uses some type of dressing made out of yogurt. I have also had my share of chocolate croissants in there. They are pretty yummy too. The only thing to be aware of, is the calories are posted beside all the sandwiches and most of the desserts too. So sadly, every choice is conscious. And all that good flavor comes at a cost. I will guess that the sandwiches are on average 500 calories. This is a busy little place. There is a seating area, but it is usually very busy. Pret a Manger in my opnion, is a better«grab and go» type place. If you are looking for an amazing sandwich, definately check out Pret A Manger.
