EATS: Subway's Sandwiches

Before this happened, me and some of my friends ate cookies from Subway. Click Here to read it.

Last Sunday, me and my friends wanted to grab some lunch from Subway, so we did!

Subway Melt

Gloria and I chose the Subway Melt, and just bought a footlong to share (SEK 50). It was really awesome that they can customize what vegetables or sauce you can put on. We chose every vegetable except onions and tomatoes. 

The sandwich wasn't "the bomb" but it wasn't terrible either. Subway restaurants are so rare in the Philippines, so I've never ate there before. The sandwich could have been in the toaster more though, it was kinda cold.  MORE CHEESE, PLEASE!

Steak and Cheese

Meanwhile, Linh had a Steak & Cheese 1/2 Footlong (SEK 40-49). After she finished this, she bought another sandwich! She bought a Chicken Teriyaki 1/2 footlong (SEK 40-49). Clearly, she was very hungry.

Gloria polished her lunch off with a cookie, while I bought my cookie for my sister.

EATS: Subway's Cookies

After we ended class a few days ago, I was so exhausted because of P.E... I needed energy, I need sugar!

What I thought was for me to get a cookie in a Subway restaurant near the Skanstull station, so I went and bought some with my friends Gloria and Shriya.

White Chocolate Macadamia

I interviewed Shriya on my Thoughts for Travelling segment. CLICK HERE to go to it. Gloria's interview will come up tomorrow!

We bought three cookies (1 cookie = SEK 10, 3 cookies = SEK 25). I got the White Chocolate Macadamia, Shriya got the Double Chocolate Chunk and Gloria got the Chocolate M&M's or something.

Double Chocolate Chunk

Chocolate Chip Chunk

Shriya said that her's was very good, because of the chocolate chips, chocolate cookie and the melted chocolate on top (Way to go Shriya. You got diabetes now.). She passed me and Gloria some crumbs (!) so that we could taste her cookie. It was burnt.

Gloria said that her cookie was fine, but based from her facial expression I think she wanted more. More M&M's.

My cookie was the best. I like how it was crunchy because of the Macadamias but at the same time chewy. I LOVE CHEWY COOKIES! I wouldn't say this was the best cookie I have ever eaten, but it is one of my favorite ones.

• One day later... 

So I found out that I could get another free cookie from Subway if I go to their website and fill out a survey form. I filled out the survey form online and I went there the next day to get my cookie. 

Only Linh and my sister came with me to Subway, though. We chose to get the original cookies, the Chocolate Chip Chunk, and it was good. It was chewy again, but nothing can seriously beat the cookie I had.

Note: There was some debate about the "free cookie after you take the survey" from the cashier and another staff member, but I did get a free cookie.

Hötorget and the Stockholm Concert Hall (Konserthuset)

{Due to the fact that I'm not using a Swedish keyboard, every time "Hotorget" is said in this post, the first letter "o" always has two dots above it.} 

What is Hotorget? Hotorget is basically a square in the very heart of Stockholm. Since I've been here in Stockholm, Hotorget is basically the site where you can get some souvenirs from Stockholm, like mugs, magnets, shirts for affordable prices.

I also forgot to mention that one of the most noticeable things being sold in Hotorget are fresh (or so I hope that they're fresh) produce. You can find tons of blueberries, strawberries, Swedish mushrooms and all sorts of flowers and seeds being sold here at the square.

According to Wikipedia, flea markets are arranged here in Hotorget on Sundays, but I have personally never seen flea markets in this area of Stockholm since the day we've visited.

Hotorget also has the Stockholm Concert Hall (locally referred to as "Konserthuset", literally translated as "The Concert House"), which is the not-that-highly-emphasized blue building in the picture above and below:

The Stockholm Concert Hall directly faces the markets of fruits, vegetables and souvenirs in the square. This building also is the cite on where all the Nobel Prizes (except for the Peace Prize, which is given in Oslo, Norway) are given.

There are so many useful establishments just within a two-six minute walk within the square and the concert hall. Here are some useful establishment examples:

• Hotorget Tunnelbana (Subway) Station is just a minute away. Literally.
• Kjell & Company - A store that sells electronic accessories and peripherals (plugs, conncetors, etc) 
• Kungshallen - A building where you can find a variety of food stalls, coffeehouses and restaurants.
• Akademibokhandlen - A shop that sells books. It's a chain (along with Kjell & Co.), so don't be surprised that you can see these kind of stores in a range of locations.
• Forex Bank - Currency exchange offices.

The Stockholm Tunnelbana (Stockholm Metro)

How we love good company. It's not just about having good friends, but how they treat you and the memories and experiences you share with them. Isn't that just delightful?

We met with Anika, Orka and their daughter Matilda in Huddinge for a nice Saturday. The plan is to help them with gardening and to have a wonderful dinner together.

We decided to use the Stockholm Metro (or the Tunnelbana) to get there. I always think that we are geographically blessed because our house is just a two-four minute walk from the Odenplan subway station (on the green line). My school is also on the green line, at the Skanstull station.

One of the many entrances of the Odenplan station 

Odenplan after the ticket-gates. 

So we plan to go to Ragsved (note that the "a" should have a little circle on top of it) and walk about a kilometer or two to the house. Most of the Tunnelbana we use is underground, but the route from Gullmarsplan to Ragsved is amazing. Everything is above ground and the scenery was very natural. 

Whilst on the subway, the train stopped at the Globen station and it has a view of the globe. See that mini-globe above the larger one? Well you can ride on that and get an awesome view of the whole Stockholm. I want to go there some day.

Arrived at Ragsved! 

By the way, here's something that may catch your attention. This is a video I took just after we left the Gamla Stan station to Slussen. What an amazing view. I see this everyday. Very stunning. 

Sorry for the quality of this video. Filmed from an iPhone. Watch in H.D. 

I saw my school from Skanstull - Gullmarsplan!
