Advantages: Sub of the day is a bargain, large variety of choice Disadvantages: Can be expensive, not as healthy as it seems

The look of the sandwiches seems healthy, theres nothing in them that you would automatically assume to be really unhealthy or fatty, but unfortunately that is not the case. Some of the subs such as chicken and bacon ranch, which is one of my favourites contains 489 calories per 6 inch sub which is really quite worrying as that is 1/4 of the daily allowance for women in just one sandwich, let alone if you get a meal deal. And if you had a footlong that would equate to 978 calories for the sandwich, which is half of the daily allowance for women! It also contains 20.9g of fat, which is a significant amount. Alot of the calories in a Subway are the sauces, some of them containing up to 200 calories per serving, so just watch out for those. Subway do provide low fat ...

Advantages: Quickness, Taste Disadvantages: Can be unhealthy, false adverts
. For example, today?s (Monday) £1.99 sub is turkey and ham deli.
The nutrition depends entirely on what sandwich, bread and filling you choose, there is an opportunity for very healthy eating here if you make the right choices. However, more often than not the nicest sandwiches end up being the least healthy, and some have been known to give you nearly all of your allowances of fat and sugar in a day (this is only the meatball marina.)
The only negative that I can really give about Subway is that the adverts sometimes don?t match up to the actual food, for example we saw an advert for a fajita style sandwich, with stir fried Mexican chicken and vegetables, however the product that I got was cold with plain vegetables, not quite what I expected.
Overall, it?s a great restaurant for lunch on the go, but watch out for those calories ...

+*+*+*+ Coffee Tamper +*+*+*+
Not a lot of people will know this but a coffee tamper is an essential piece of equipment to make a good espresso, and a good espresso will lead to a great cup of Cappuccino, Latte and Mocha.
First you need a roaster to roast the green coffee beans, that's right coffee beans are green before they are roasted. The fresher the beans the better the coffee and you can not get any fresher than roasting your own.
Second comes the grinder and no ordinary grinder it has to be a burr grinder as no other will do. Coffee looses its quality within hours of grinding so best to grind just before making the espresso.
Fourth you need the 15bar pump driven coffee machine this pushes the water through the ground coffee at high-pressure and for the perfect espresso the water should take between 23 and 27 seconds ...
