Subway is notorious for overselling their fanchise territories, so
it's a crap shoot as to whether or not one is any good, the
competition being so fierce. Some will let their goods go too long
(age) before discarding. While not a Subway fan, I've occasioned upon
a couple decent one's and they can be OK if the owner does his part
and the cutomer does theirs (old tomato slices are pretty obvious).
I've never tried the steak and cheese, but it sounds like a stretch
offering. You expect the kid to actually cook!? I'd stick with the
basic cold cuts subs and not expect NYC deli fare. Like most chains,
the quality ranges only from decent to abysmal.

BTW, where does anyone who would knowingly accept "Whiz" on anything
get off condemning a product as "just aweful"? That's like saying,
"Their dog turd sandwich is just disgusting". duh.....
