Planet Sub

I hadn't been to Planet Sub in quite some time, but I dropped by the 94th and Mission location with my brother who was in from out of town. We both attended KU in the 80s, so we go back to the original Yellow Sub days. My brother ordered a Veggie and I ordered the Mega Roast Beef. He was happy with his and I thought mine was really good. The bread was warm and had an almost-crispy texture, but probably the best part was the balance of the ingredients. Even if the name is Mega Roast Beef, I don't want a sandwich that is nothing but meat. Nor do I want a bucket of bbq sauce or an overly thick layer of cheese or a ton of salty bacon. I think it's best when you can really taste the onions and mushrooms even if it is a meat-heavy sandwich, and in that sense it was perfect. The staff was also very friendly. I'll go back soon!

Planet Sub is great and has been since it was Yello Sub in Lawrence, but you need to pick it up yourself. Doordash is the exclusive delivery agent. DD doesn't care about delivering fresh, hot food, only delivering maybe room temperature food when they get around to it. DD's problems are that 1) they can't coordinate their drivers' pickup with the food preparation; 2) The drivers usually have two deliveries to make, which means that your food may be delivered 30-45 minutes after it was picked up; and 3) DD couldn't care less. No matter what the restaurant, what the order, or what time of day, Doordash will deliver it cold. And usually screwed up. AND THEY DON'T CARE!
