| - Eight coworkers and I paid a visit to the Paradise Melts truck this week and we were all very impressed. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, and eager to answer any questions. The wait was minimal, and the food was great!
You have a choice between a (huge) sandwich ($6), or, the sandwich meal ($8) which includes your choice of a side of Mediterranean pasta salad or cole slaw, as well as your choice of a fresh iced tea or lemonade.
I had the Cali Melt - turkey, avocado, tomato, cheese on grilled multi-grain bread. It was very hearty and filling. I got the meal deal figuring the sandwich would be of normal proportions but they really stuff 'em full of goodness! The portion of pasta salad is large too. You could definitely get two meals out of the meal deal. I will eat anything if you put feta and olives on it, so I was all about the pasta salad, which also had some onion throughout. Everyone gobbled theirs down. My lemonade was perfect, not too sweet.
Others ordered the Reuben, the Veggie, and the Roast beef. All of the sandwiches have generous amounts of fixins. This food is such a welcome alternative to all the chains near our office that serve up the same old boring deli fare. They have a standard menu to select from but you can also build your own "melt" with anything they have. I'm thinking a turkey Reuben is in my future. We can't wait to see Paradise Melts in the neighborhood again!
