I’m pretty sure The Green Kitchen, in The Milwaukee Public Market, might be one of the best deals in town.

No, not the cheapest deal (McDonald’s does have a dollar menu) but when you think about what you’re getting, for the price you’re paying, I have yet to find anything that really beats it.

Order off the sandwich menu or create your own salad combination; we’re talking about hearty portion sizes of fresh ingredients for around $7.  They have over 50 fresh vegetables, meats and nuts everyday plus housemade dressings. You can order either cold deli sandwiches or hot pressed paninis complete with specialty cheeses and spreads. Feeling the flu coming on? They have nearly 10 fresh squeezed juice combinations littered with vitamins and nutrients.

Yes, it’s become a regular stop for me when I’m running to or from work but it’s far better and far cheaper than comparable local or chain sandwich and salad stops.

Check it out. I highly recommend it.
