Haven't seen the salami yet. In the UC across from B6 at ORD and no salami. I will say that the garden vegetable soup is surprisingly tasty, though. Would try some of the bread if there was any butter to be found...

Tried some for you today at Denver East. Bread was cold and kinda hard. Not quite stale tasting but...not much of anything. No butter here, but I haven't seen that anywhere.

Would love some warm bread and butter. But this was pretty bad.

I ended up grabbing one of the baguettes and dipping it in olive oil. The olive oil was the cheap stuff - you can tell when good olive oil is used - but the bread was okay, although if there was any way to keep it warm, that would be a plus.

Salami is like a 1x a day thing, and I don't even think its daily. It was out this past Friday, after the crowds had subsided around like 6:30pm.

If there is a schedule about when it gets put out, I have never seen it posted. Though you really aren't missing much, its pretty much the cheap deli salami you can get at any grocery store. Its nice having another protein out there but I certainly would not lose any sleep about not finding it.

It's not so much about eating the salami, it has become a bit of a game to actually declare that you have seen the United salami, along with leprechauns and unicorns.

I have now seen the salami a few times but still have to see the hard boiled eggs at breakfast time. They are the real unicorn.

IME the percentage is high for the number of eggs that "walkout of the UC" in multiple quantities.
Fortunately I don't like HB eggs.

I saw an odd small bowl of chopped green stuff, and apparently it is the chives to go with the (never seen) hard boiled eggs.

I've never seen this mythical salami.

The hard boiled eggs on the other hand have been sighted and consumed

Sweet. I will have to utilize my gate pass privileges (while Club members can still get them) to check out the spread.

No. I asked and they said CLE opted not to have eggs, salami, brittle chips and skittles based on experience of other clubs. They do serve soup using real bowls and spoons, however, which is a plus.

I didn't know clubs could pick and choose what they serve. I always figured United gives them a menu and that's the end of the conversation.
