Sandwiches: Sandwiches -- both paninis and wraps -- span a wide range of countries and cuisines. The Caprese ($7.25) is classic Italian with fresh mozzarella, tomato and pesto. As is the Bella Roma ($6.45) which features grilled chicken, red peppers and provolone cheese. 

In the mood for something different, check out the Cuban Connection panini ($7.95) which combines pulled pork, ham, and swiss cheese layered with pickles and mustard, or the Mango Tango wrap ($7.25) -- chunks of chicken with mango salsa, cilantro and fresh greens.
