We've all been there - it's mid-day, you're starving, and you don't want to break your wallet. Enter Bake Chef, the saving grace of hungry UCalgary students everywhere.
No restaurant or food stall on campus is quite as beloved, with countless posts on Reddit and even a student article of an interview with the owner. It's definitely a go-to for hungry students on campus, and I finally got to try it.
I won't have to tell you what order I got, since it's clearly indicated on the paper I bubbled in:
The price for one sub was very reasonable at about $8, which is definitely an important factor at a university. The first bite or two is a bit overwhelmingly bread-y but the bread is freshly made and delicious, and of course I greatly appreciate the option of "brown" bread (it seems to be whole wheat or almost whole wheat).
A good variety of protein options, I tried the roasted chicken :) |
Ping-pong ball for reference? Probably should've taken this photo from a better perspective |

The chicken was cooked perfectly and the seasoning/sauce was good. I wish there were more veggies because I found myself wanting a higher freshness to bread ratio and craving more carrot crunch.
Overall, Bake Chef's sub is definitely worthy of a MIAM-MIAM rating - it's fresh, cheap, fast, and pretty filling. While it may not quite live up to the hype for some, it's still deservedly a go-to food spot for many students.
