My friends eyes lit up when they saw this place . Apparrently they had frequented one when they travelled to New Zealand , but had not seen one since. They do live in St Ives though.
Anyway, this place is like a subway but somehow fresher and personalised..and with Pitta bread.
When we walked in we were greeted warmly, and asked if we had been here before. I politely said no and stepped up first.
First off choose your Pitta bread..large or small, wholemeal or not. Second, choose your centre piece, halloumi, tuna, chicken, beef or just veggies. Next choose your spread, hummus, tasiki or onion chuntney..then the fillings, spinach, sweet corn, peppers, mushrooms, jalapenos, olives, onions, lettuce etc..these can be grilled at no extra cost. I recommend the mushrooms, onions and peppers :)
Nearing the end, choose your cheese , Swiss, cheddar or parmesan..and another sauce bbq, sweet chilli..
Under the recommendation of the chef, I chose the grilled halloumi which was tasty and not rubbery..
Each step of the process was explained, and lots of recommendations were provided.. for £1 you can select a drink so this tasty healthy meal only came to £16 for the three of us.
To conclude this is a nice alternative way for a quick lunch. Staff were great and they have recycling bins too to help that good ol environment. read more
