We made it out to Chandler, Arizona this weekend to try Lee’s Sandwiches on the corner of Dobson and Warner Roads. The tip to try Lee’s came from Seth Chadwick who blogs about restaurants in Arizona over at Feasting in Phoenix. His recommendation was a good one, with 10 inch long sandwiches served on freshly baked French baguettes costing a mere $2.50 each. My first choice wasn’t my favorite, I opted for the Special Combination not knowing I wasn’t looking at Mortadella, it was head cheese. I personally am not a fan of organ meat and so the flavor wasn’t my cup of tea. The manager gladly exchanged it for the grilled pork which was excellent – I still wish he’d let me pay for it as it was my mistake for not paying attention and at only $2.50 each I didn’t feel I was losing a lot of money.
On Wednesday when I pick up our Community Supported Agriculture grown veggies from the Little Farm in Gilbert I’ll be stopping here at Lee’s to pick up lunch for myself and a sandwich for Caroline. Sadly, this location is the only one in Arizona, but the manager said there are plans for more locations. Thanks, Seth for the great tip.
John,
My pleasure in providing the tip. Lee’s is excellent and the sandwiches are dirt cheap with so many choices.
Try one of the croissant sandwiches as well. They are not as bold as the bahn mi, but are still quite good.
Best wishes!
