Lee's Sandwiches: One Down

Having been voted one of the 21 top sandwiches by Phoenix magazine, I was expecting more from Lee’s Sandwiches. The bread was nice, crunchy and slightly warm. Because we were trying to learn about the place we both ordered two Asian sandwiches (the #4 grilled chicken and #5 grilled pork) and a drink. I was shocked when the total came to $8.00. It was a good thing I chose to indulge because after finishing both 10in. sandwiches I was still not full. They were small, well, as small as a 10 in. sandwich can be. The meat was good, flavorful and moist, I just wish there was more of it. The first bite was one of all bread. On my second attempt I tasted the meat, pickled carrot and radish. It was fresh tasting and enjoyable, but lacked total crave-ability. There was no crazy taste explosion in my mouth. I wouldn’t drive across town again for a sandwich from Lee, but I might stop by if I was in the area.
