D W Subs & Sub-Zeros

I have been going to D W's for over 20 yrs...I first discovered the place while I was a student at Esperanza High School. Now, I work 2 blocks away and visit for lunch as often as possible.  I get the added bonus of fond memories in addition to the great food.

I always order the Roast Beef Club..it comes with roast beef, lettuce, onion, mayo, bacon, avocado and of course my favorite, the Italian dressing...I love it, love it, love it....In a perfect world, I would be able to buy bottles of this Italian dressing to use at home. Every time I visit, I always say I will try a different sandwich today, but always end up getting my old faithful roast beef club.

Their garlic bread is also a good bet....it's topped with tomatoes and melted cheese and (of course) drizzled with the famous Italian Dressing... The bread is fresh and it comes to you all warm and gooey with the cheese melting on top. Perfection!

The owner, who works behind the counter 95% of the time, still remembers me from high school, and knows my order as soon as I walk in the door...



D W's offers at least 30 different kinds of sandwiches, the pizza sub and bomber are also very popular among those who visit.

I highly recommend this little sandwich shop. You might want to time your visit so that you miss the "rush" as the high school gets out because the kids like to order and then hang around - so it can become a bit crowded.

Quest for the Best...Donut Star

Two of my co-workers and I are on a quest to find the best donuts. It is our goal to try every donut store we can find, and see how their donuts stand up to the rest.  The Donut Star in Anaheim, Ca was our first stop on this journey.

I have been eating at this particular Donut Star since high school. The donuts are always fresh tasting, but there's nothing too special about them. The employees are nice and helpful, and the prices seem good compared to a few other donut stores I have visited. The three donuts below only cost me $2.35.

The maple bar is always a good choice because the dough part is light and fresh. You get that little hint of grease taste so you know you are indulging. I am not a fan of donut stores were the cake/dough part is not a little greasy. When I splurge on the calories and eat a donut, I want it to taste that way.  It has a light maple glaze on the top, that always looks prestine.

The chocolate cake donut with peanuts on top, was ok. The cake was a little crispy, like it wasn't as fresh or maybe it was a bit over cooked. But, the chocolate icing and chopped nuts (a lot of chopped nuts) on top were good. It did leave a little bit of a weird after taste though.

The rainbow sprinkle donut was better. The cake part of the donut was softer and fresher tasting. It wasn't too dense, and it had a good ratio of icing on top.

 This Donut Star is always a safe bet, for a good tasting donut.
