From Festive favourites making a comeback to new Christmassy food innovations, the Express team were happy to taste test the whole of Pret's Christmas menu . Back due to popular demand is Pret's Christmas Lunch Sandwich – thick slices of British turkey, herby pork stuffing, and Port and orange cranberry sauce. Also nestled in between slices of malted bread are crispy onions and baby spinach, but did the sandwich deliver on its flavour? The taste tester rated Pret's Christmas Lunch Sandwich as "5/5" because it tasted "really delicious".
Elaborating, the reviewer said: "It's the perfect blend of wet and dry with the cranberry sauce and crispy onions." Another highly regarded selection was Pret's new Brie and Caramelised Onion Toastie , which was also given five stars. Inside the toastie, there is French brie, mature Cheddar, and sweet caramelised onion chutney warmed through on seeded bloomer bread.
A post shared by @pret The reviewer said the new toastie tasted "fresh and crispy", adding that there was a "decent amount of both fillings" and that it was the "perfect festive sarnie". A recent newcomer, however, didn't receive glowing reviews, so Pret may need to go back to the drawing board when it comes to the Hog Roast Macaroni Cheese. Only given a two-out-of-five rating, the Hog Roast Macaroni Cheese – pasta full of ham, caramelised onion chutney, and panko breadcrumbs – was harshly slated as "bland and stodgy".
"It will fill you up," the reviewer added, before mutterin.
