Sorry guys but are you all newbies in Shanghai? How abt those delicious 10" tuna, real curry chicken or roasted beef with moustard of dijon sandwiches in XuJiaHui Grand Gateway. They charge you 20RMB with free delivery and 33cl Coke, Fanta, Sprite or water. You can see the cooks prepare it before your own eyes (even the mayonnaise) and vegetables are the best quality I have ever seen down-town. Tomatoes are imported from Italy and the cook is french.

Overpriced. For the prices they charge it better be damn good with free delivery. You get these prices in Firenze for real sandwiches. Yet another "foreigners" service. There are far better sandwiches, huge ones at that, that cost almost half. They also have take away.

Cool news! The menu looks decent though I really want a nice roast beef or roast turkey sandwich, but the available delivery sounds good for sure. Good find!

This place is great - I believe it's from kitchen of Pasti. I don't care if they hijacked Wagas' menu, at least they don't charge Wagas prices. Sandwich Express offers a combo deal that's unbeatable: 1 sandwich, 1 salad (Caesar or Tuna w/ greens) and one fresh squeezed (really) juice - Orange, Apple, Carrot, or Punch (mixed). Price is 52 or 58 RMB but you save 10% if you fax or SMS. I have ordered at least 6 or 7 times - always fine, and the delivery guy is pleasant. The Traditional Chicken, in a wrap, is probably my favorite, good use of mustard. The Pesto or Curry Chicken are also good. If you get the Ciabatta, I suggest toasted. I have always ordered by fax - but they need to redesign their fax menu for multiple sandwiches in one order. The Salami was a bit light on meat. My friend said the Beef Fillet was good in a wrap. Give this place a try...

Either get the curry chicken or the roasted vegetable, on either ciabatta or wrap. The chicken pesto is nice as well. I also found their service to be very polite. I always use their SMS service and they never screw it up.

Cool suggestion--will check it out tonight. The menu looked strangely familar but I couldn't place it--until I realized that more than HALF of the sandwiches are taken almost WORD FOR WORD from Wagas' menu! I love Shanghai...
