Ham & Cheese

Ham & Cheese at Sambalatte
B-
Look here: the reason I claim Sambalatte as my top neighborhood coffee shop is because they have tasty treats. A Starbucks sandwich never looks or sounds appetizing. Here, there are sandwiches and salads and bad-ass pastries, too, all perfect with a cappuccino.

This simple yet sizable meal is a stack of decent, salty ham with mini-slabs of creamy brie on a slightly crusty, chewy baguette. It could use a little frisee or some spicy mustard, but it's just fine on its own. Coffee bar food doesn't have to suck.
