[edit] Pronunciation

If anyone knows the proper pronunciation of Togos ("To gos" or "Toe Goes"), please add. It's been a mystery to my friends and I for quite some time. Gantry 14:28, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

well, here in its traditional home, we pronounce it "toe goes". Gentgeen 10:19, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] If anyone has any Questions

I will be glad to answer them. If there are enough random ones i'll combine pronunciation and all the others under one heading. I really am not sure how much to add, as the official Togo's page is already linked too.

[edit] Advertising Language

Please keep advertising language out of wikipedia articles. If your interest in Togos is because you work for them, and are enthusiastic about the company, we are glad to have you add any encyclopedic information you may have, but please be extra-careful about not putting in the contentless language you find in advertising or company letters such as in the following sentence:

More than 30 years later, Togo's is still committed to making great sandwiches. Now the bread is baked especially for Togo's and recently added to the menu is a selection of hearty soups and salads worthy of the Togo's name.

"Worthy of the x name" and "x is still committed to making great y" are phrases you should never find in a encyclopedia. They are inherently POV (and in this case sound like they were taken directly from the companies PR material). Brentt 05:44, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

This bit still bothers me. Sounds like we're reading it off a placemat:

Cobler had little money and no experience. He didn't have a business plan. He just made the kinds of sandwiches that he liked - big, fresh and custom-built - at prices even a college student could afford. Soon there were lines out the door and Togo's was well on its way to becoming successful.--Weakmassive 18:21, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
