McALISTER'S DELI

Yesterday I visited a customer in Evansville, Indiana.  We have a tradition of going out to enjoy a Sushi lunch after all the buying is completed.   Sushi has always been, and will likely remain, my favorite food.   I am sure that if I was compelled to eat only one thing for the rest of my life and it was sushi - I'd be fine with that. (really fine) However, on the way to the store I passed a Jason's Deli.   Sushi can be purchased virtually anywhere.  Jason's Delis are a bit of a a treat as they are not ubiquitous in the states that I travel.

I mentioned this to my customer and she first proposed that we go to Jason's Deli as she sensed that I would prefer that.  But then she recommended yet another regional chain, much like Jason's Deli which until yesterday I had never heard of.

So yesterday was my first meal at a McAlister's Deli.   I had an Angus Club Sandwich with Chicken Tortilla Soup.  Everything was quite tasty.   I looked up McAlister's on the internet to find out a little bit more about chain.   This came from their own website:

Founded in 1989, McAlister’s® Deli is a fast casual restaurant chain known for our sandwiches, spuds, soups, salads, desserts and McAlister’s Famous Sweet Tea™. In addition to dine-in and take-out service, we also offer catering with a selection of sandwich trays, box lunches, desserts, a hot spud bar and more. With numerous industry accolades, the McAlister’s brand has 341 restaurants in 24 states.

It is very good to have another place where I can enjoy a good meal.   Who said eating 'on the road' was difficult?
