Lunch at Cafe Pontotoc

Cafe Pontotoc, which opened last June, recently started serving lunch. I, for one, welcome a new lunch option along that stretch of Main. 

The lunch menu has many of the same items as the dinner menu. The chief difference, as far as I can tell, is the addition of sandwiches, including a cheeseburger, grilled cheese, club, and reuben. There are a number of hot dogs as well — the Mexican Dog (with guac and jalapenos), Japan Dog (seaweed!, daikon), and the South Main (“If we’e got it, we’ll put it on there), etc.

I went pretty simple with soup and a salad. 

The soup was the Cucumber Avocado ($7) served with pita triangle. I liked the soup a lot — creamy, fresh crisp flavors, served cold. I don’t think it’s substantial enough to serve as a main part of the meal, but as a starter, it would certainly rev up the appetite.
