What should I order at Panera?

[xeemzor]

After talking with a few of my friends, we decided to hit up the local Panera in a bit. Having only been there a few times, I only have gotten the Chipotle Chicken and Italian Combo. Both were pretty good, but is there anything I'm missing out on at Panera?

Ouch, why the Panera hate? We just wanted something different then the usual packed lunch/generic fast food place...

I had some panera while I was in NJ and I wanted to stab myself in the face with my greasy fingers.

Don't remember what I had to be honest. I'm trying to suppress that memory.

Wait a minute, I think I've located the problem:

I had some panera while I was in NJ

Are you sure you ate at the same place I did? While Panera is fairly obnoxious in it's attempts to seem like an upscale fast food place, the food wasn't nearly as bad as you describe. In fact, it was pretty decent.

Maybe it was just the NJ location I ate at. But w/e, if it works for you then great

Asiago Roast Beef FTMFCGW!!

Without the horseradish though...that shit is nasty. I usually get a little mayo instead of it.

Chicken Salad sandwich with chips.

 

[Xavier434]

I am a fan of their "Pick Two" deal and I always go with the french onion soup and then whatever sandwich looks best to me. That soup is AWESOME!

 

[DnetMHZ]

The one time I ate at Panera the sandwiches were pre-made and wrapped in plastic wrap in the case.. it was nasty.

I had some sort of turkey sandwich from there when I was in San Francisco and found it very blah. I tried it because I know a lot of people here have a hard on for it. I went to the French bakery next door the day after and it was much, much better.

I've only ever been to one, but the sandwiches are always made on the spot (of course I never order a sandwich the way it's listed on the menu).
