There's basically nowhere in HK I wouldn't go for a sandwich. And when they're in Central, even better.UBW has a somewhat confusing set-up.

UBW has a somewhat confusing set-up. There's no indication about this, but you go to the area that cooks X if you want X, then bring the stuff you've gotten to the cashier. My wife already decided on the duck confit sandwich, so I decided to go for something else.
I picked the chicken & guacamole sandwich. The real thing looks less exciting than the mock up. It's just guac and chicken, with one wilty piece of lettuce. The chicken was bland but passable. The guac was good, but they definitely skimped on it-- in the middle of the sandwich there was almost none. The bread was OK. I'd rather have this than Pret, but I wouldn't really go out of my way again for it. Alright/ C+.
The duck confit looks more exciting.
The sandwich itself is a little disappointing. A little bit blander and drier than I was expecting. It needed some mustard, and luckily there was some on-hand. It was definitely better than the chicken sandwich, but also not worth going out of one's way. Good/ B+.
The salad wasn't very good. It was pre-mixed and sitting in a big bowl; the lettuce just got wilty and soggy with the dressing. Poor, D.If I were in the area and I needed a quick bite, I could see myself going here. But I'd much rather go to Fresh in LKF-- bigger selection and better sandwiches. This place gets an overall OK/ C+.
