Ooooh......sandwiches!!!

If there is one thing that I have in common with Joey from Friends, it's that my favorite food is sandwiches!!! I like all kinds of sandwiches....but mostly the ones that have lots of stuff on them. I am definitely not a bread and meat only kind of girl....throw it all on there - mayo, mustard, meat, cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, black olives, pickles, salt & pepper, oil & vinegar....got anything else you can put on there? Sure, add that too!! I love me some sandwiches!!

One of my favorite places for a good yummy sandwich is Tex-Andwiches. I remember noticing the teeny, rundown, building when I was at an eye doctor appointment about 7 years ago. After I saw the name, thought that maybe they had sandwiches there, and went to try it out.....and as they say.....the rest is history!

I've taken many people there, and they too have loved it! For a short time, we were without the yummy deliciousness because they were forced to shut down . The land they were on for something like 30+ years was bought by the city, and they had to close. But not to fret.....a few months later....they were back up and running in their new location!

I have the phone number memorized, 255-0294, but it's also saved in my phone. They get kind of busy sometimes, and it's nice to call ahead and put in my order. I've been eating there for so long that the owner knows me by name, and when I call, he says "Oh, I know you. See you in 5 minutes.".

Well, after dropping off a few things at the bank today, I needed a bite to eat, and I called upon my favorite sandwich place. When I went in to pick it up, there was a full fledge, like real, camera crew there...filming in the kitchen. I was all giddy and happy for them, and asked the owner what was going on. After giving me my lunch, he walked outside with me and told me that it was the Food Network. They were in town filming some stuff about Round Rock, they'd been to the new Salt Lick, Lone Star Bakery, and were advised to come over there for lunch. They got there, and decided to film it too!

I can't tell you how excited I am that this little gem has the chance to be featured on national TV! How COOL is that??!?! Well....now to think about it.....uh oh....what if they get too big and too busy and forget all about their favorite customer??

Nah, I would love it if everyone knew about this awesome little place. They've been running it for something like 30 years or so. So, next time you need a good sandwich fix - check em out! I always get the TexAndwich on French.....it's so good! :)


Don't forget to get your Tex-Andwiches Club card stamped. After 5 sandwiches, you get a free small one! I can't count the number of times that I've filled up those cards! :)
