Each bar is one pillar of the score, 0 to 100\. The tick marks what a sandwich at the summit needs; an amber bar is the one holding this sandwich back.

**hoagie roll (inferred from the kind of place)**, served cold: chicken salad; duke's mayo (high tier); pumpkin seed dukkah; shichimi; arugula.

Much of this build is inferred from the name; the score is a reading, and it stays out of Troubadour Bread & Bistro's typical score.

Worth a look: named producer: Mayonnaise; ingredient not in the pantry: Pumpkin Seed Dukkah, Shichimi Togarashi.

The seven flavor axes of the whole sandwich, each summed across its layers. The shaded ring is the catalog's middle 80%; the small number under each axis is where this sandwich falls in the catalog. A shape that sits inside the ring is in the range most sandwiches live in; a spike past it is where this one stands apart.

Points: what the Sandwich Score would lose if that one layer were left out, everything else the same. A negative number means the sandwich scores higher without it. Flavor runs 0 to 5 on each axis.
