Woman Spends More Than Rs 4000 On Just Two Sandwiches In London, Shares Honest Review

NDTV18-07-2025
Sandwiches are the perfect meal for any time of the day - be it a freshly prepared egg sandwich for breakfast, a hearty chicken and veggies sandwich for lunch or a late-night PB&J. But how much would you be willing to pay for a fancy sandwich? A London-based foodie, Liv, recently decided to splurge on two luxury sandwiches from the iconic Harrods Food Hall. Sharing her experience online, she revealed that she paid a whopping 36 pounds (Rs 4,170) for just two sandwiches, reported Mirror UK.
Liv purchased a lobster roll priced at 18 pounds (Rs 2,085) and a truffle egg sandwich for 8 pounds (Rs 927). "I basically spent 36 pounds on two sandwiches, but you'd go out for lunch and spend 36 pounds in Nando's, so I think it's fine - girl maths," she joked.
However, the foodie was slightly disappointed that the sandwiches weren't packed in fancy Harrods boxes. Curious to know if they were worth the price, she did a taste test and shared her honest review.
First up was the lobster roll, which has reportedly been going viral on social media. Liv was excited to try this, but turns out the sandwich was too big to bite easily and bland in taste.
Taking a bite, she said, "It's bland, it's really bland. I'd rather have a Tesco meal deal than that." She rated the Rs 2,085 lobster roll a disappointing 2 out of 10.
Next, Liv tried the Rs 927 truffle egg sandwich. This time, she was impressed and delighted with the flavours. "Mmm, you get instant truffle, and the eggs are so rich and creamy. That is one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. It's just so, not complicated - like egg and truffle but done well," she said.
Her viral video received mixed responses online. While some viewers drooled over the luxurious sandwiches, others felt these were too expensive.
One user gushed, "The truffle egg one is insane," while another said, "Egg one looks classy."
Shocked seeing the price, one commented, "My husband won't be happy, he thinks a 3.40 pounds meal deal is a rip-off." Another added, "Girl, you have money to burn. 26 pounds on sandwiches? Nope, I'd rather have a Domino's."

Son of Sardaar 2 opens lower than Son of Sardaar in India - Day One Box Office comparison

Son of Sardaar 2, starring Ajay Devgn, Mrunal Thakur, Ravi Kishan and others, has begun its box office run. Serving as the sequel to 2012 comedy film, Son Of Sardaar, the second instalment opened with a below-par figure. Son of Sardaar 2 opens lower than the 2012 released first instalment Directed by Vijay Kumar Arora, Son of Sardaar 2 debuted with just Rs 6 crore to Rs 6.50 crore net on its opening day, today. It is not only a dull start but also a lower figure than the opening day figure of its first instalment. For the record, Son Of Sardaar had collected Rs 9.50 crore net on its opening day. Even if one doesn't consider ticket inflation, the opening day figure of Son Of Sardaar 2 still looks dwarf in front of its prequel as the first film had faced a tough competition with Shah Rukh Khan 's Jab Tak Hai Jaan. The latest outing of Ajay Devgn also faced a clash with Dharma Productions' Dhadak 2, however, both have nominal buzz among the audience. Day 1 box office comparison of Son Of Sardaar and Son of Sardaar 2: Movie Net India Day 1 Son of Sardaar (2012) Rs 9.50 crore Son of Sardaar 2 (2025) Rs 6.75 crore The original movie had Sanjay Dutt, Juhi Chawla, and Sonakshi Sinha as the three main characters apart from Ajay Devgn. Moreover, Salman Khan had made a guest appearance in the movie, which took its buzz a notch higher. Son of Sardaar ended up doing Rs 88 crore net in its lifetime and emerged as a HIT venture. Looking at the current trends and initial word-of-mouth of Son Of Sardaar 2, it is likely to wrap its theatrical run much lower than its prequel. Don't be surprised if it ends up collecting just half of its first part. The movie has opened to average to poor reviews, which are hampering its business. If the movie had met with superlative word-of-mouth, things would have been much better. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.

Box Office: F1 continues to draw audience in week five; Collects Rs 88 crore net in 35 days

F1, directed by Joseph Kosinski and starring Brad Pitt, Kerry Condon, Damson Idris, Javier Bardem and others, is still holding its own at the Indian box office. The film's collections have not been affected, despite it losing all of its high performing IMAX screens, and despite facing new local competition every week. After 5 weeks, the movie's collections stand at Rs 88 crore and it still has some steam left. There is news that the movie will release in IMAX screens and if that happens on a large scale, a Rs 100 crore touch-and go finish can't be ruled out. For now, it looks to cross Mission: Impossible 8 to become the highest Hollywood grosser of the summer. The Week Wise India Net Box Office Collections Of F1 Are As Under Week India Net Collection 1 Rs 34.50 crore 2 Rs 24.90 crore 3 Rs 13.45 crore 4 Rs 10.90 crore 5 Rs 4.25 crore Total Rs 88 crore net in 5 weeks F1 Heads For A Usd 600 Million Global Finish F1 released with very subdued expectations. The movie was never meant to do over USD 300 million worldwide. However, the racing film kept crushing predictions, week after week. Now, it is expected to end its run in the USD 580 - 600 million vicinity, and who knows, the late legs can help it even go beyond USD 600 million. There's no doubt that F1 is the summer's biggest surprise, even though there have been more profitable films all summer. Lilo and Stitch, How To Train Your Dragon, Jurassic World: Rebirth and Superman are bigger hits but none of them surprised the trackers more than F1 did. Brad Pitt Shows His Movie Star Power Brad Pitt was going through a lul phase in his career and there really needed to be a film like F1 to show to the audiences, why he is loved so much. Movie stars are movie stars because they have the ability to cater to all kinds of audiences. Through the course of his career, Pitt has delivered so many different films for different audiences, that the result of F1 should not be a surprise to anyone. F1 In Theatres

This Bigg Boss contestant charged Rs 2.5 crore for 3 days, didn't even know who Salman Khan was, the name is...

Bigg Boss is one of the most loved reality shows which garners impressive TRPs every time it is aired. Since people have grown so fond of drama, romance, juicy gossip, and fights, the makers of Bigg Boss are now all set to return soon with a brand-new season. Bigg Boss Season 19 is highly anticipated, and fans are eagerly waiting for any official announcement. As we discuss one of the most renowned shows, do you know that during one of the seasons of Bigg Boss, there was an actress who took Rs 2.5 crore for 3 days? This Actress Didn't Even Know Who Salman Khan Was? In 2010, when Season 4 of Bigg Boss aired, many different celebs such as Ashmit Patel, Dolly Bindra, The Great Khali, and Shweta Tiwari became a part of it. Among them was Pamela Anderson. Anderson is one of the most famous Hollywood celebs. This was the first season of Bigg Boss to be hosted by Salman Khan. At the time, Pamela didn't even know who Salman Khan was. Although Bigg Boss is often referred to as a family show, Pamela's expressions and choice of clothing stirred quite a bit of controversy. What truly surprised people was her statement before entering the Bigg Boss house. In a media interaction, she said, 'I've heard about Salman from the media, but the truth is, I don't know who he is.' Trying to cover up her remark, she added that she had watched a few Bollywood films but couldn't recall the name of any actor. However, Salman did not like the fact that Pamela had no idea who he was. As per PTI, Pamela said, 'Maybe if I see him, I will recognize him.' She also said, 'I like doing housework, I do this work at my home too, so I have no problem with it.' There was a lot of discussion about her fees. It was reported that she was paid more than Rs 2.5 crore for three days.
