For breakfast, my dog likes to accompany me on the walk to Vees to sit at one of the outdoor tables, where I enjoy a Breakfast Burrito or a thick fruit smoothie. For lunch and dinner, I’m often on the run and keep Vees menu in my car. I phone in my order and it’s ready for pick-up in less than ten minutes. The paninis are especially scrumptious - fresh bread that is grilled to make it crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The tastily rich Caprese Grill, like the un-grilled Caprese Sandwich, is full of fresh buffalo mozzarella, basil, and perfect tomatoes. For a spicier kick, the Spicy Chicken Panini has a yummy homemade jalapeno dressing, avocado, provolone, lettuce, and tomato. There are more traditional options like tuna salad or turkey melt as well. And every sandwich comes with a side salad (though you might want to ask for extra dressing).
For those who dine in, more menu options are available - such as pasta (which I look forward to trying in the near future). The cozy interior space is very cool – as the owner, Hector Aquino, displays artwork by up-and-coming visual artists. There’s also free WiFi and a bulletin board for goings-on in the community.
You’ll be delightfully filled up and guilt free for less than seven dollars. That’s only a dollar or two more than a fast food Value meal – and isn’t the health and longevity of you and your family worth it? Plus, you’ll be supporting one of our fine locally-owned Mom and Pop restaurants on Adams Blvd.
