I'm obsessed with turkey sandwiches, and it's a real shame they're so hard to find in HK (I guess I'd never thought about the fact that turkeys are American birds and less popular outside America). I'm also just obsessed with sandwiches in general, so I had to give Kaiser's a go (plus, taking the ferry is fun).I ordered the turkey delight. Bread: Many of the pictures in the other reviews have poppy seed Kaiser rolls, but I distinctly remember them not having any when I went there. There were fou

Bread: Many of the pictures in the other reviews have poppy seed Kaiser rolls, but I distinctly remember them not having any when I went there. There were four roll options, but some of them didn't appeal to me (onion bun), and I went with whole wheat. I'd probably have got the poppy seed roll, if they had had it. The roll was very big and bready. It didn't overpower the sandwich, but it was a dominating force. Reasonably tasty and not dry, but nothing speacial. 6/10
Cheese: The turkey delight doesn't come with cheese. I didn't realize this until after I'd ordered it. Maybe you can ask for cheese, but they didn't ask me if I wanted any. Disappointing. 0/10
Turkey: Better than the stuff at Subway, but they didn't give you very much. 7/10
Veggies: I got lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and pickles. The pickles were pretty good. Not amazing. 7/10
Final sandwich score: 6/10
The big question here is obviously whether you should go here, or go to Subway, which is literally just upstairs. Personally, I think Subway is better: better bread, cheese as an option, better vegetable selection (jalapenos!), and more veggies. Of course, I know sandwich snobs who won't touch Subway, and some people who think their bread is terrible. Kaiser's is a decent alternative, but not worth going out of your way for.
