Battle winnerHajj NasrBattle result — not a Yummy restaurant score

Hajj Nasr mastered the sandwiches, while Maalem Chakib puts more emphasis on sauces. The meat quality and spices were better at Hajj Nasr, while Maalem Chakib offered better quantity for the price. Overall, if we wanted the tastier sandwich, we'd go to Hajj Nasr.
