I've rarely seen such
shameless chazers. I'm referring to the bread-mooching asswipes who
just duck their head into Cosí to snatch a piece of bread out
of the discard bowl at the end of the counter, only to sprint back
out for their fancy pants meal at Citarella, or wherever. Yes, the
bread is good enough to inspire virtual thievery and general jerkiness.
They have also made strides over the years to improve the quality
of their actual meats and whatnot. The turkey is no longer pressed,
but chunks of white meat, and the chicken (also chunk-like) tastes
relatively fresh. I usually order something simple so as not to overpower
the taste of the wonderful flatbread. They do also make an amazing
vinaigrette that is currently making me drool thinking about it. I
usually pair that with plain chicken and some red onions and I'm set.
They still haven't solved their terrible menu presentation, but those
of us addicted to their crackloaf have memorized it anyway. This one
gets particularly crowded at lunch, but the line generally moves pretty
quickly. Just watch out for those pushy jackasses who will literally
bite through your wrist if you're grabbing the last chunk of carb
castoff. [MF] Other Locations: Cosí Sandwich Bar (Midtown East) Cosí Sandwich Bar (Midtown East II) Cosí Sandwich Bar (Times Square/Theater District) Cosí Sandwich Bar (Union Square Area) |
