Schlotzsky's got a makeover

I went to Schlotzsky's for lunch this past weekend. It's been around for as long as I can remember, so I'm not going to even bother telling you where it is. If you don't already know, I'll let finding out be part of the adventure. It'll build character and be worth it. You'll thank me.

I don't go there very often, but their fresh-made bread is worth the trip. I don't know baking, but the bread is the perfect density and is full of air pockets. There is probably a name for this type of bread, but I just call it "delicious". I always think of them as being on the expensive side for a sandwich, but I don't think it's any more than Jason's Deli or McAllister's. Plus, you can check out their website to get some coupons (.$50 - $.75 off a sandwich, depending on size).

Schlotzsky's also has the best chips around. They have their own chips, in all sorts of tasty flavors, so don't go in hoping for Dorito's or Lay's. I always get the Cracked Pepper ones, which are probably my favorite kind of chips ever. You can also get Schlotzsky's chips at some grocery stores around town (Walmart Supercenter on McCain carries them last time I checked) so pick some up even if you don't make it by for a sandwich.

But like I said, this place is been around forever, so I hate to act like you don't know anything about it. If you haven't been, go. Nuff said. The reason I'm posting is because if you haven't been in awhile, they've redone their dining area. It used to be a big open area and you could see everything from everywhere. Now they've added a brick divider so that you can't see the front counter from the seating area. It looks a lot nicer than it did before, so check it out. It'll be a good excuse to go. It also looked like they were working on adding a back patio area, but it was still under construction as of about a week ago.
