      1. (optional) Check the online menu and take a mental note of what you want.
      2. Go to the counter and wait in line.
      3. Find the type of sandwich, bread, and cheese you want. Also check the toppings in case you want extras.
      4. Wait for the sandwich barista to acknowledge you, smile, and say “Hello, I would like a {type of sandwich} on {type of bread}, please”. You can choose to have it toasted at this point.
      5. When asked, mention the extra toppings. If they skip the toppings, you can politely interject with something like “Oh I just remembered, could I also get some Z with that?”.
      6. Check the sauces. When asked, say which one you want. You can also ask for spices like Oregano here.
      7. When asked, say whether you want to eat it here or take it away.
      8. Pay.
      9. Say “Thank you, have a nice day!” to the sandwich barista and enjoy your meal.

      Hope this helps!

    Im so used to this style of ordering where you just point and say what you want, that one time i went to a bahn mi stall in a food court and starting doing that and the guy was so confused. They even had all the toppings and meat out in front like that!

    He was like “its kinda a pre-made thing” And i was like “ok but i dont actually care about having a ‘bahn mi’ i just want a sandwich so can i pick and choose?” (There were no other sandwich stalls in this food court)

    I don’t have the same anxiety, but I also always want to say just make the menu version, and why do you have menus if you can’t just make it. And also, if something is called a Caesar, why the holy fucking shit are you asking me what dressing I want?

        Well there’s plenty of reasons to avoid it, but if I can’t, I just tend to list what the picture shows and banana peppers, but it’d be nice if they did substitutions instead.

    Yeah but it was reddit so there were also 1,600 self righteous overweight basement dwellers pretending to be nobel laureates while each one tries to out edgy all the others.

      As if Lemmy doesn’t have a self-righteousness problem. I mean it’s full of former Redditors who now think they’re better than the average Redditor because they left.
