Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Pret a Manger?

What do they serve in there? By products of the cheese making industry presumably?

Pret a manager was my first experience of pretentious foodie bollocks.

Fairly sure it was the 'Wiltshire cured ham and swiss greve cheese baguette with mixed salad leaves and mustard mayo'. Up to that point in my life I'd only ever had ham and cheese rolls.

Mr Google tells me that it is a glorified cob shop and there is one in Nottingham. Don't think I'll bother

Back in the day, Pret-A-Manger used to have 'rocquet' in their salads.

For those not familiar with it, EAT is *very* similar to Pret-A-Manger, but with better soup and worse sushi.

I prefer Pret soup to Eat, find the latter too starchy, but it depends what you like. Pret thrives because its sandwiches are at least as tasty as (and far less likely to kill you than) the various Italian/Portuguese/Greek/Syrian independent outlets that you find in places like Westminster.

Having said that I'm about to tuck into an exotic mackerel speciality from one of the local indies. Living dangerously.

Greppers, re sushi, did you know that Itsu is run by the original Pret people?
