Pret-A-Manger For A Sand-A-Wich

I LOVE PRET-A-MANGER!!! 

I studied abroad in London and almost lived off of this stuff.  Have you ever heard of it?  The only locations in the U.S. as of now are in New York.  They are also in the U.K. and Hong Kong.  It’s basically a quick-serve sandwich/soup/salad shop but oooooh it is so much more!  They use natural ingredients and offer many dishes that are wheat-free, organic, contain free-range meat, etc.  Beautiful, healthy and fast!  Enough of my advertisement.

Here’s what made me think of Pret…seeing one of its many storefronts obviously!  This Pret is located on 7th Avenue at 39th Street:

I had a few favorites while over-seas: chicken and avocado sandwich, brie tomato and whole-leaf basil baguette, and their falafel (it’s actually very good!).  Often, when we didn’t know what to eat for lunch, we’d go to Pret.  All the time.  It was cheap, quick and delicious.  Only a few months after I returned home to New York from London, I started to notice Pret-A-Mangers popping up all over the city.  It made me the reverse of homesick, it made me London-sick!  It always makes me think of the amazing semester I spent in London.  Whenever I see a Pret in the city, I feel like I’m looking through a secret portal to London and I remember all the good times I spent with my friends…eating sandwiches .
