Is it lunchtime yet? We'll give you a moment to check a clock. You back? Okay, now let's talk turkey. Like, this turkey sandwich lunch snapped by LAist Featured Photos contributor kristi.nicole. Like for many of you, lunch is often born of convenience--whatever time you get and whatever place is handy. And although our photog doesn't say much about her turkey sandwich, she does have some thoughts on where it came from:

I don't frequent chains too often, but I am fortunate enough to work around the corner from a Champagne Bakery. Their curry chicken salad sandwich (served on a croissant) is yummy! They also have a pretty good selection of salads (the chopped salad being my favorite) and quiches as well. More importantly, they have a bakery section filled with scones, danish, croissants and the like. If you leave without eating a chocolate chip cookie you are a better person than I.

There's only 5 Champagne Bakery locations in LA/Ventura Counties, so there's probably a lot of us who are missing out. Chains, even small ones like this, sometimes get snubbed, but sometimes are our secret indulgences. What's your secret chain indulgence?
