  I've been here a few times now, after a ridiculous first lunch, and I think I have a decent picture of it so I can review. It's almost certainly the best option in downtown Hammond or for a ways around, with a full array of coldcuts or blackened chicken chunks on a variety of nice breads (a few types of bagels (a cheesy one, sesame), pretzel buns, etc.) with fresh veggies. As for drinks it's basically just soda and bottled water (and maybe there's like, Hawaiian Punch). There's one soup special a day, and they vary widely (I've called in to learn the specials). There's a half sandwich and soup meal. The cafe is cute, with big windows and a few tables and chairs, and some nice comfy couches. The ridiculousness of my first lunch there stemmed from the fact that things are often "down"--my fist visit pretty much nothing was working, from the sandwich press to the credit card machine. Another time just the credit card machine was down. So bring cash, and be prepared to roll with whatever comes up.
