Sandwich Bar For People Who Hate Sandwiches

Hungry patrons enter this odd restaurant and are seated in front of a large clear, bullet-proof screen where the food is prepared before them.

Diners choose a delicious sandwich from the menu and their weapon of choice via an array of coloured and flashing buttons at their table.

Once the order is taken, the food is cooked and prepared and placed at one end of the 'kitchen' area inside another bullet proof chamber.

A siren is sounded with appropriate flashing lights, and a small door opens above your sandwich. A man's hand appears and fires into the chamber at close range - the bullet passing through your sandwich and into a specially designed table that absorbs the impact, leaving your food sitting quite neatly on top.

A waitress (with kevlar apron) retrieves your sandwich and serves it to you at your table. A photograph is taken of you with your sandwich - resplendent with bullet hole directly through bread/salami/cheese/lettuce etc so that you may always remember your violent and touching lunch time experience.

       I'd come in just to order sandwiches with fillings that I *hated* - particularly the ones with fillings that I love, ruined by horrific sauces and mayonnaise.

       In your dreams a disembodied hand emerges from the stricken sandwich and returns fire... at you! It must have been the cheese.

       //a more subtle pillow over the sandwich//   

       How do you determine when a sandwich has stopped struggling?
pertinax, Jan 08 2009
  

       [-] I like sandwiches
FlyingToaster, Jan 08 2009
  

       I bet that some smart alec will order a bagel...
Jinbish, Jan 08 2009
  

       So, maybe someone should make *target* bread...

       //A waitress //   

       //I like sandwiches//   

       Yep indeedee.

       Surely you wouldn't *ever* want to harm a really nice bacon sandwich.
Dub, Jan 08 2009
  

       with tomato and a bit of cheese on a decent toasted bagel, buttered not margarined and a ... stupid diet.
FlyingToaster, Jan 09 2009
  

       Can you order out? I'd like to put bulletholes in a few of Subway's offerings (they're the only place besides the crappy cafeteria within a long walk of here and I'm really tired of them)

       for an additional fee, a shirtless man with a dark hood will slice your sandwich in half via guillotine - each half landing in a little basket either side of the chopping block. delicious!

       "Concentrated efforts" can only do so much for a burger that costs 15 cents to make.
Spacecoyote, Jan 10 2009
  

       I'll have mine submerged and torpedoed please.   

       Brings a whole new meaning to "Torpedo Sandwich".

"No. Toast it. Toast it Real Good!!"

       with your choice of ketchup or mustard flavoured gun powder
benfrost, Jan 11 2009
  

       I don't see why this wouldn't appeal to people who like sandwiches as well?   

       There are plenty of people who like to shoot the things they enjoy eating.
mylodon, Jan 11 2009
  

       My thoughts exactly, [mylodon]. I've been sitting here thinking I could probably get a cherry tomato into a paint ball gun...
lurch, Jan 11 2009
  

       Death to potato side dishes, as well. <linky>
daseva, Jan 12 2009
  

       could a professional dagger thrower just quarter my sandwich from across the room? that'd be cool too.

       [+] The only good sandwich is a dead sandwich.
RayfordSteele, Jan 14 2009
  

       [+] A sandwich is just a sandwich. But a DeadManwhich is more like a meal...
