"Let's go to Subway."

A little history lesson:
"Back in 1965, Fred DeLuca set out to fulfill his dream of becoming a medical doctor. Searching for a way to help pay for his education, a family friend suggested he open a submarine sandwich shop. With a loan of $1,000, the friend—Dr. Peter Buck—offered to become Fred’s partner, and a business relationship was forged that would change the landscape of the fast food industry.

"The first store was opened in Bridgeport, Connecticut in August, 1965. Then, they set a goal of having 32 stores opened in 10 years. Fred soon learned the basics of running a business, as well as the importance of serving a well-made, high quality product, providing excellent customer service, keeping operating costs low and finding great locations. These early lessons continue to serve as the foundation for successful SUBWAY® restaurants around the world. " (Information from www.Subway.com)

There are 33,829 Subway restaurants in 94 countries. No matter which Subway we visit, we find the food quality and flavors consistent. One we like is located at 1401 Amarillo Blvd., Amarillo, TX 79107. We like the turkey ham, as well as the ham and cheese sandwiches. The smell of the bread makes us ravenous. One feature we especially like is the bountiful supply of vegetables for our sandwiches. It is fun to order unique fixings planned for each customer and each mood.
