Default ARBY'S ROAST BEEF SANDWICH needs major "makeover"

If you are a Arby's customer and not satisfied with their food, suggest
you all write Arby's at their corporate HQ to ask them to improve the
quality of their sandwiches, namely the Roast beef sandwich. It is
pathetic that they sell such low quality food and are still in
business. I love Roast beef sandwiches and the other big fast food
franchises do not carry them.

I used to go to Lake George, NY. in the early sixties, where I came
upon
this excellent roast beef sandwich at a restaurant called Neba. The
restaurant was located on the way to the beach. They were also in New
York City and in the state of Mass to my knowledge.

It was the most delicious roast beef sandwich I ever tasted., a roast
beef sandwich which melted in your mouth and was so tasty, you could
not stop with one one sandwich. I think there was a little melted
butter on it. It was served on a sesame roll and the beef was freshly
made and cut on the spot. It needed no sauces to add to the flavor. The
restaurant was only around for a short time in the sixties. Does anyone
remember ???..www.nebaroastbeef.com

They probably could not compete in price and volume with the fast food
franchises that evolved soon afterward. Probably they also needed an
extended menu, as they could not survive with one item today.

I always preferred a roast beef sandwich made by Neba, to what is out
there today, as I am not into hamburgers.

Arby has a pale imitation of a roast beef sandwich which is tasteless
and needs sauces to make it edible..

A joke going around says that "Neba" meant "never buy at Arby's."

The Neba restaurants were not on the scale of today's fast food places.
They were small and I doubt they could have quick production for large
crowds and maintain the quality. There were a few imitators after, but
the flavor was not the same. They all eventually died out, except for
Arby's, which sends out coupons to encourage people to frequent their
restaurants as their food is so low in quality. They practically have
to give it away to encourage people to go to their restaurants. Their
french fried was always cold.

I have no "beef" with Arby's. I wonder if they still put beef in their
sandwiches,.
but in my opinion, their roast beef sandwich is inedible, unless you
add the sauces. My wife also ordered a BLT from Arby's and it was also
not as good as other restaurants. She would not order it again there.

I still go there the odd time when they send out those "free" coupons,
as it is close by my residence..

If Arby's want to lure people away from hamburgers, they should make a
effort improve the quality and flavor of their roast beef sandwich and
other items on their menu.

For anyone who cares, please refer Arbys Roast Beef under google group
...
rec.food.restaurants. there is a excellent article written by one Holly
Moore.
