Downtown Schlotzsky's

[BKDotCom]

Across the street from the Mayo there once was a Schlotzsky's.
It's been closed for 5 or so years...
I just noticed the slightest bit of activity in there..
Just maybe something's going into this spot soon?

Don't get too excited. I've heard from a few people the building has a limited lifespan.

Yes. Kanbar has signed a new restaurant for that building. I believe it will be a local sandwich shop.

Oh great, another white flour processed meat with dairy venue.

Warren Zevon's quote when he was close to death comes to mind: "enjoy every sandwich..."

Sandwich shops work well downtown because of the lunch crowds, I just wish more of the existing places would take a chance on dinner (at least on the weekend). Check out Elote's almost any night...there is a market for downtown dinner restaurants.

Agreed completely.

A good deli downtown would absolutely blow away most of the craptastic sandwich shops we have there now.

How about a sandwich shop with a meat slicer? It is not physically possible to make a great sandwich without a meat slicer. I would sell a kidney for a good kosher deli.

They could then turn around and serve it back to you with some chopped liver. LOL

I haven't seen a sandwich shop with a meat slicer for ages.  I thought maybe OSHA outlawed them.

I think you may be right about that.  It's pretty unsanitary if you stop and think about it.

Lambrusco'z has a meat slicer...AND a clean record with the health department.

FAIK, Arby's still uses meat slicers on-site.  Most all delis use them as well, I think.

The only reason I could imagine this building going away would be for a whole-block development..   And that's a very active imagination..

PS:  Mr Goodcents = meat sliced when sammich ordered..
