Let me begin by saying that I eat fast food very rarely. On some level, I am morally opposed to those types of establishments. But more than that, I prefer to do my eating out at local, non-chain joints. This week, I made an exception for Arby’s. My discount-master sister printed out a stack of coupons for free Market Fresh sandwiches at Arby’s (with purchase of a drink). I had the roast turkey and Swiss, and I am happy to report that the sandwich was quite unlike your typical fast food — the bread was a thick-cut honey wheat, the meat was oven-roasted and thinly sliced, and the lettuce and tomatoes were surprisingly fresh. I was even able to swap out my soda for a milkshake, since I’m not a huge carbonation fan. And since one dessert is never enough, I decided to give the $1 chocolate turnover a try. I’m almost embarrassed about how much I loved it. The pastry was super light and flaky, and the chocolate filling was fudge-like and semisweet, just the way I like it. It’s probably a good thing we don’t have Arby’s in Boston, because I would be tempted to make this a repeat purchase.
