  1. Subway in international center, the people will stand like tirupathi queue waiting for dharisanam. U wont even have 5sec to choose what u want because everybody will be staring at you saying choose and get the hell out of here. At last u get some crapy stuff and think i wasted $5.50 and i should not come to this subway anymore. Then u shift ur attention to panda express. :)
