| - When you work on the far west side and forget your lunch at home as frequently as I do... what? OK, I'll start over. When you work on the far west side and you're too lazy to pack a lunch, you get kind of tired of the Milio's across the street from the office. The Cousins down the road is fine, but there's one of those near home for the days when you forget to buy groceries for dinner (yeah, yeah... or you're just too damn lazy to make it).
What's left, then, for your traditional sandwich lunch? Capriotti's, of course! Located in a clean, newish space on Junction Road, this place boasts a friendly staff and good selection of sandwich choices. My favorites are the Capastrami (haven't tried it? you haven't lived), the Bobbie (with the pulled turkey and dressing and cranberries, it's Thanksgiving every day sans a Detroit Lions loss) and the cheese steak (add the hots and sweets, or forget it).
The service isn't as fast as, say, Subway, but that is offset by the fact that they don't serve sandwiches that taste like cardboard. It's fast enough -- I can drive over, order my sandwich, and get back to my desk without being out of the office for 30 minutes.
4 stars on the sandwich shop scale. If they had a punch card, I'd eat a lot of free subs.
