Once again, this is a charming little shop that caught my eye with its decor. I initially only wanted to take a look, but I was intrigued by the menu! Since I was in Korea, I wanted to try some local food, so I didn’t opt for the signature hamburgers or rib dishes. Instead, I ordered a seaweed rice roll filled with homemade luncheon meat and homemade kimchi, along with an iced Americano.
The luncheon meat was not overly salty; the seasoning was just right, with a rich meaty flavor that melted in my mouth! The rice was slightly sticky, and the kimchi had a bit of tanginess, cut into small pieces that didn’t require much chewing, adding a nice texture. The nori had a milder sesame oil flavor than I expected, just a hint of nuttiness. Overall, it was very pleasant to eat!
The iced Americano was impressive! Perhaps because I had eaten something a bit salty, the sweetness of the iced Americano was brought out? In any case, the moment it touched my tongue, I could feel its aroma and sweetness! Very nice~
This submarine sandwich chain is located near Neihu MRT Station and features a large dining area spanning two floors, and they even provide restrooms!
📍Tender Chicken Fillet Submarine Sandwich NT$118
🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑
I love to choose "Parmesan Cheese" for the bread, as I enjoy its subtle cheesy aroma.
Currently, due to delays in international shipping, we are out of stock on "Jalapeños" and "Pickles." The basic toppings available are "lettuce, onion, bell pepper, tomato, cucumber, and olives," which I added all of them, haha!
I usually opt for the "Tender Chicken Fillet" because this meat isn't the kind of processed meat; it tastes somewhat close to sous-vide chicken breast, making it a healthy choice for protein without additives!
For the sauce, I chose "olive oil" + "Southwest sauce," but the Southwest sauce has the highest calories, so it nicely balances out the emptiness after eating a submarine sandwich~~
▶️ Environment
🔹 The indoor space is large, with two floors that can accommodate up to 40 people.
🔹 The decor is very SUBWAY, with large patches of green and yellow.
🔹 There are restrooms on the second floor.
🔹 No outside food is allowed in the restaurant.
▶️ Friendly Reminders
🔹 Please return your own trays and throw away your trash after dining.
🔹 You can pay with a transportation card, but please inform the staff.
🔹 LINE Pay and credit card payments are accepted.
▶️ Overall Evaluation
🔹 Usually, when I buy Subway, I take it to go and only order individually. The fizzy drinks and cookies are too sweet and not healthy, haha! The advantage of this place is its large and comfortable indoor space, perfect for meetings, conversations, or reading on the second floor! However, the rating usually suffers because of the poor attitude of the staff; I noticed this place frequently hires new employees! For example, today, my meal did not come with napkins, which is disappointing! The submarine sandwich itself is okay, consistent with the chain's quality.

the American brand 𝙎𝙐𝘽𝙒𝘼𝙔 focuses on healthy, guilt-free meals.
Currently, it has over 90 countries and more than 31,000 branches worldwide.
The Kaohsiung outlet is conveniently located next to a gym,

The riverside path is often frequented by joggers 🏃🏻 and cyclists 🚴.
During this time, 𝙎𝙐𝘽𝙒𝘼𝙔 is a great choice for those looking to reduce carbs and fats.
In addition to the classic submarine sandwich, salads 🥗 are also offered,
making it perfect for people in the area to replenish their energy before or after exercise ⚡️.
Now let's place an order step by step❗️
𝙎𝙏𝙀𝙋 𝟭 Choose a submarine sandwich or salad 🥗.
This breakfast period, I chose a submarine sandwich.
𝙎𝙏𝙀𝙋 𝟮 Choose the size and type of bread 🥖.
They offer both 6-inch and 12-inch options.
Every day, they usually provide 5 types of bread:
white bread, wheat, Parmesan,
honey oat, and toasted flatbread.
I also chose the Parmesan as per my usual preference.
𝙎𝙏𝙀𝙋 𝟯 Choose the filling 🍖.
Options include premium chicken, classic beef/pork/seafood, or a combo selection.
I originally wanted to order the thick-cut tender beef, but was informed it is currently unavailable,
so I went for the teriyaki chicken strips.
𝙎𝙏𝙀𝙋 𝟰 Choose add-ons (additional charge applies) 🧀.
You can upgrade to double portions of meat, avocado, fried egg, shredded cheese, etc.
Speaking of which, a hearty breakfast makes you feel full~ so I added a tender fried egg.
𝙎𝙏𝙀𝙋 𝟱 Choose vegetables and sauces 🥒.
The official website provides suggested sauces and calorie charts for reference.
I opted not to add sauce to the teriyaki chicken,
and for vegetables, I specified no pickled items.
𝙎𝙏𝙀𝙋 𝟲 Pair with a meal set 🔝.
You can choose from 8 meal sets, from 𝗔 to 𝗛.
This time I wanted to select 𝗗: the soup and cookie meal,
but the soup is only served after 9 AM,
so I added a healthy purchase of grilled chicken breast.
Once the payment is completed, I can enjoy 🉐 today’s brunch 💚.
Although the overall price tends to be a bit high 💰,
it is convenient and fast.
The taste can be subjective,
but my personal preference leans towards lighter flavors.
Additionally, since I am in a maintenance period for weight loss during regular work days,
I occasionally indulge ✌🏻.
I also learned some little tidbits during this experience,
so I wanted to share them with everyone ✨.

· Bread: Parmesan cheese bread
· Flavor: Fresh chicken tenders $118
· Cheese: English sliced cheese
· Add-on: Egg Salad $35
· No pickles and green peppers, no sauce, and more lettuce
Since I started eating lettuce, I always remember not to add pickles. I found that the subway is really delicious, and I must add a ball of my favorite egg salad. The taste is completely unnecessary without adding any sauce, it is perfect!
However, this restaurant has a lot of delivery orders during the meal period... They will alternate between on-site and delivery orders, so the waiting time will be a little longer.

Extra/A la carte White Chocolate Hawaiian Bean Cookies🍪
——It turned out that after buying it, I took a few bites and discovered that there was chili pepper!
(For me who likes mild spicy food, I find it quite spicy...)
After buying it for a while, if you eat it upright, the bottom of the bag will be filled with sauce and it will get wet, so finish it as soon as possible!
When I was in college, the biscuits were a bit crispy and soft, and I liked the texture very much (I ordered them almost every time I bought them), but I was a little disappointed after ordering them this time...
I like the taste of Hawaiian beans, but the overall taste is soft and the center is sticky and sweet (like a biscuit that becomes soft and wet after being left for a long time)

·Second return visit order:
12 inches - Honey Oatmeal Bread
+teriyaki chicken
+Avocado puree (one ball)
+No black olives, jalapenos
+Sweet Scallion Sauce

Chicken Buchai + favorite avocado puree + sweet shallot sauce, delicious!
(12 inches for 2 people to share. Will cut it in half as shown in the picture👍🏻)

Overall, it's a good choice when I'm just passing by, not very hungry, or don't really want to eat hot food. But every time I order, it depends on how the store clerk feels that day. When I ordered it for the first time, either the ingredients were a little small, or it was easy to make mistakes in a hurry, and I felt that the quality was a bit inconsistent (unfortunately...ඉ́ ̫ ඉ̀)
When I ordered it for the second time, it was a little more delicious than the ingredients.

The space in the store is not very big, but one side of the place can get a little crowded during meal times. There are usually bread crumbs left by the previous person on the table. The overall space is quite clean, but you won’t want to stay too long, and the air conditioning is quite strong.
Meals
Main meal: Mexican spicy beef
Configuration: No black olives, jalapenos
Sauce: mayonnaise
Price: 113 yuan
Subway is famous for its submarines, but I think this restaurant offers less lettuce or main dishes than any other Subway I've ever eaten (pictured). This is my first time ordering Mexican spicy beef, and I don't know if it tastes like this. There isn't much meat, but the texture is really thin. If you want more meat, you can consider grilled chicken and thick-cut tender beef.
I originally thought that the beef itself would be spicier, so I didn’t add additional Mexican peppers. I chose the sauce to match the spicier and sweeter mayonnaise, but it turned out that the beef was not spicy at all xD
Overall it's quite delicious, but I still feel a little empty after eating. Maybe I will consider this restaurant only if I'm looking for snacks🫠
The music is slightly loud.
This is a world-famous submarine restaurant that needs no special introduction.
From all angles, Submarine Castle is definitely qualified to be called a healthy diet, with high-quality starch sources, large and diverse vegetables, and just the right amount of meat. Of course, the sauce may need to be squeezed out a little less.
Today we enjoyed thick-cut tender beef burgers and Mexican spicy beef pancakes, plus a set of hummus pancakes, for a total of about 360 yuan.
The thick-cut tender beef burger uses honey oat bread as the base.
The beef lives up to its reputation as a thick cut, and the thickness of each slice is substantial.
It is quite a pleasant experience to eat together with oatmeal bread that is slightly sweet with honey and a lot of vegetables.
As the name suggests, Mexican spicy beef scones are based on flame scones. The texture of the scones is quite interesting. Different from the soft bread, every bite with meat and sauce has a solid texture.
The smell of hummus cake is quite special, so how you like it is a matter of opinion, but this thing is quite healthy, so I will still eat more or less.
To add a little knowledge, the larger chickpea species is also called snow lotus seed.
Overall, it's quite satisfactory and the service attitude is as good as a chain store should be.
The more interesting part...actually, if you think about it carefully, looking at Subway's business hours, is it actually a kind of breakfast restaurant?
Recommended to everyone!
This is the submarine chain store located downstairs of the department store!
-Spicy Biscuits-35-Recently there is a buy one get one free event! This is the first time I know that Subway has biscuits with this flavor! It seems to be a flavor limited to Taiwan! The texture of the biscuits remains crispy on the outside and slightly soft and sticky on the inside. The sweetness of the original biscuit is comparable to that of the original biscuit at first bite, about 50 to 60% sweet. The spicy feeling will become more and more intense after you bite it. It has the numbing and spiciness of crushed chili peppers, and it is slightly spicy or more. If you like this kind of sweet and spicy It’s great for people to buy and try!
This branch is located on Hengyang Road. After recent renovation, the store has become brighter and cleaner overall. However, the row of seats leading out of the toilet is still next to the queue line, which is not very convenient and friendly for entry and exit.
(ps. Even the shop assistants seem to have become more friendly after the renovation)
On weekdays, office workers who are nearby come to shop at noon, so there are quite a lot of people queuing up. It is recommended to arrive early to avoid waiting too long. There are about 30 seats in the store, and most of the customers are takeout, so there is no need to worry. No place to sit
The biggest selling point of Subway is that it can be customized, ranging from bread size, bread type, main meal (beef, chicken, pig and fish), side dishes (lettuce, onions, green peppers, tomatoes, pickles, etc.) and additional toppings (egg salad, Avocado, etc.), sauces, and whether to add a set meal (biscuits, potato chips, drink soup), everything can be customized.
Today I ordered 6-inch tuna for $118
For bread, choose Parmesan cheese. I like the salty taste of this bread.
Tuna is the flavor I order most often because I can eat it with every bite. Subway’s tuna is very moist and very tasty.
The sauce I most often pair with tuna is honey mustard sauce. The flavors go well together and taste quite refreshing, making it perfect for summer. Sometimes I also choose sweet onion sauce (sweet) or southwest sauce (slightly spicy).
In addition, the lettuce, onions and other side dishes at this branch look and taste quite fresh, which is a plus
Overall, Subway is synonymous with submarines. It has many flavors to choose from and can be customized. You can also eat protein and vegetables at the same time. It is highly recommended for people who are on a diet.
ps If you want to be healthier, you can choose a salad (without bread) or skip the pickles and sauces
After exercising, I need to replenish protein! It just so happened that Subway recently launched a new rich series, and I was blown away by the store’s promotional photos. They were very delicious and the special promotion used two layers of cheese. Be sure to come and replenish your calories🤤
However, since this special item cannot be customized, if you want to add more ingredients, I will just pass it (and share it later). After that, you can choose the bread of your choice with your favorite staple food and fillings. I especially recommend eating the tender omelette. It looks thin and dry, but after heating, the egg flavor will really come out. Pair it with cheese slices. Really a perfect match.
In addition, I still had a taste of the rich series that my friend ordered. It was really like a slice of pizza. The taste of cheese overshadowed the flavor of mushroom sauce. Friends who want to eat healthy pizza can give it a try. But I think the ingredients are less and the price is relatively high. It’s good if you try the taste~
