the Baguette Box

I realize I need to get off this damn Hill for some grub. It is out of convenience that I keep eating at all these places so close to my house. But before I try and leave the Hill, I had to mention the Baguette Box on Pine. If you read this blog, you know I love sandwiches...and this place is choice.



Lately it seems I end up eating the same baguette every time we go and so does L. All of the sandwiches are simple and fresh. I fucking LOVE this bread.

I go with the crispy tofu baguette:


L. goes with the crispy drunken chicken baguette:



The salads and fries are homemade, flavorful and tasty. They even have fountain style thai iced tea or wholes bottles of wine to go! Also, if you have an extra photo of your dog...bring it in, cuz they will put it up as part of the restaurant decor. My only complaint is that they close at 8pm...I love places that realize I tend to eat dinner around 9.

i love this place. i'm so glad you're regulars now. the truffle fries are bomb...green bean salad w goat cheese is awesome.

my only complaint about baguette box is that their roasted beet salad is retarded. it's like half of a beet sliced w a mandoline into thin discs and then drizzled with oil. why did i even pay for that salad made of nothing? i used to get it when everyone would get drunken chicken sammies after the baltic room @ 2 am on fridays.

and you're right...too bad they're only open until 8. boo.

Again - love this blog. RA and I don't live on the hill, but because of his day job and the little ones dance, we are literally there ALL the damn time - constantly lookin for places like this.

FYI thanks to your blog I now have a list of places to eat other than Delux, Than brothers and Broadway Grill...

am i the only one who thinks the baguette box is just a little overrated? i feel like you could get a tofu banh mi at saigon bistro that's just as good, if not better, for $2.50. also, the drunken chicken is a mess to eat.

my sandwiches of choice have always been the lamb w/ yogurt dressing, and the hot meatball sandwich. they're good, but for some reason, i have found myself staying away from le box lately.

i also think it's a little expensive--especially the arugula salad which is small and costs like $6 or something.
