    CCSR Cafe view
    Jonica K.

    11/5/20- Small sandwich deli located on the medical campus of Stanford. Nice, quiet place to have a lunch break, especially if you're a student rushing to and from classes/labs! -Lox sandwich on Dutch Crunch bread- Included salmon, lettuce, tomato, onion, bell pepper, olives, pickles, and pepperoncini. The sandwich was also supposed to come with mayo but I definitely got cream cheese in mine. Not sure if someone got the two mixed up or if they ran out of mayo. Overall, the flavor of the sandwich wasn't bad but I was disappointed with how it was made. All of my salmon was smashed into the middle section and the 1/3 ends of my sandwich was just bread and lettuce. The sandwich was also very messy to eat with ingredients fall out or moving around with each bite. The Dutch Crunch bread also had no "crunch"...wish they would toast their subs! I heard that for their hot sandwiches, only the meat is toasted but not the bread. Would have loved a crispy, crackly exterior to my sandwich! -Cafe experience and ambience- Ordering was very simple and fast. They also serve coffee, smoothies, chips, etc. My sandwich came out within a couple of minutes. I also love the vibe of CSSR cafe in general. There's lots of glass and the architecture at Stanford has a very modern design. If not for COVID, I would be camped out in this area much more often. There's quite a few tables set up so it's a great place to rest. -Price/value- My lox sandwich was about $9-10, which is the price of most sandwiches here. Not too bad of a price for a slightly above-average sandwich but wouldn't go out of my way to eat here. I had a busy day on campus and this cafe was definitely a convenient location to grab a simple lunch. It's not my favorite place but it is still a good option if you're on the run and need a fast meal!

    Roast beef with Swiss on Dutch

    SO ill be honest as evidenced by my checkins Nexus is my go to here but there are times,and times being the key factor, that the CCSR Cafe hits the spot. As work dictates sometimes I cannot meet the hard 230 pm cutoff at Nexus. Other times you just need a great deli sandwich and this is a great place to get one. First off the lines can be horrendous during peak hours. That being said the service is quick and friendly. I also really appreciate that the person handling the money is NOT the person making at sandwich. Its a heck of sandwich as well. As always my Mendoza Line sammy is a Roast Beef with Swiss cheese. Its a basic order, its impossible to hide crappy ingredients and it lets face it very very tasty. The Roast beef is perfectly pink and tasty. The ingredients like the sprouts, onions, lettuce and tomato are fresh. The mustard and mayo are nothing special but deftly applied in perfect amounts. The dutch crunch is not quite up to Ike's standards but its a close second. It is a sandwich at its best. Simple but well executed They actually quite an extensive collection of chips, as well as the usually suspects in terms of beverages. As a plus they recently updated the outside furniture/tables and it no longer looks like a tetanus shot waiting to happen.

    Everyone knows I am a sucker for a sammich. And when you are on the road sometimes you just want something simple...like...oh...I don't know...2 pieces of unbuttered and toasted sourdough, a grilled chicken breast, a little mustard, and some dill pickles. A simple lunch was craved and received. The ladies taking my order were very nice and very fast at making the sammich. At $9 it is a little pricy, but it is exactly what I wanted. No sodium, fat, grease, or clarified butter overload here. Just a good lil sammich. Next time I am at Stanford, I would put money on me eating here again. For the decent campus fares, speed, smiles, and simple food, sometimes the comforting things are the best. 4 stars.

    Disgusting. I couldn't even bite through the dutch crunch, extremely stale. Ingredients smelled old. Threw it away. Waste of $13.

The ambiance here is really nice as well, especially the outdoor patio. We went with a group of 7 smart was awesome! The service was also fast and prompt which was quite enjoyable. For food we tried: * Crab Cake Benedicts - these were delicious and the crab cakes were really well made and fresh. The side of potatoes this came with was also awesome. They were well spiced and the potatoes were perfectly soft. * Biscoff lotus pancakes - these were absolutely divine. The pancakes were perfectly fluffy and came in a stack of 4. They were huge with fresh whipped cream and a biscoff sauce. There was also maple syrup. The combo was out of the world and would definitely recommend one to get this when visiting! We were able to split this so everyone in our table was able to enjoy. Overall, really good experience here with fresh food and nice vibes. Would definitely go back again!

But I did have some concerns…read more We ordered a special churro dalgona coffee, 5minutes of Heaven Shake, the OMG sandwich, and a half stack of the cookie butter pancakes! The food was very good to say the least, this amount of food was perfect for us. Though not too much of an issue (if this is the case) but the pancakes to me taste very very very similar to pancakes made with the Krusteaz brand pancake mix, I only say this because I had pancakes that used that specific brand's mix not too long before eating here. Regardless, the food was very delicious. For me and my girlfriend, the drinks were OKAY at best. To me, the coffee didn't have much "churro" taste in there besides the little churro treat that was added in the drink as a topping. The 5 minutes of Heaven shake threw us off a little because we weren't expecting the drink to be almost room temperature, we would have liked it to be cold like how our coffee was! Overall not too bad of a visit, definitely would come back if I'm ever in the Palo Alto area again.

What I really appreciate is how simple they keep everything. Their focus on fresh, handmade sourdough sandwiches with quality ingredients makes ordering easy. There isn't an overwhelming menu--you know exactly what you're getting, and every sandwich is made fresh and comes out quickly, which is perfect when you're on a tight lunch schedule. The customer service is just as impressive as the food. The staff always greet you with a smile, make sure you're taken care of, and create a welcoming atmosphere that keeps you coming back. Whether you choose to enjoy your meal outside in the business district or take it to go, the experience is always enjoyable. The prices are very reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food and the excellent service. It's hard to find a lunch spot that's this consistent, convenient, and welcoming.

It usually takes me two and a half hours but hey I get to see my friends and drop in on Dittmer's. I usually buy the smoked ham hocks because I am addicted to a Cuban black bean soup. I have tried smoked ham hocks from other sources, but the results were so bad that I threw out the soup. The only place I have found that has true smoked ham hocks is Dittmer's. I noticed the price of ham hocks has gone up. But many of the other prices have held steady. The store remains neatly organized and is spic and span. It's kind of what you would expect from a German shop. Carlo's black bean soup from All around the world cookbook by Sheila Lukins. Totally worth a 2.5 hour drive. 2 pounds of black beans Quarter cup olive oil 3 cups, diced onions Eight cloves of garlic, bruised and peeled. One smoked ham hock 6 quarts water 2 tablespoons +1 teaspoons ground cumin 1 tablespoon dried oregano Three bay leaves. 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper Pinch of cayenne 6 tablespoons chopped flat leaf parsley 6 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves. 1 teaspoon salt Two medium red bell peppers, diced reserve a quarter of a cup for the garnish Quarter cup dry sherry 1 tablespoon pack of brown sugar 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice. One cup of crème fraîche or sour cream. Soak the beans overnight, drain and rinse. Heat the oil over low heat and sweat the onions and garlic, about 10 minutes. Add the beans with the ham and the water to a large pot. Stir in the 2 tablespoons cumin, the oregano, bay leaves, black pepper, cayenne, and 2 tablespoons each of the parsley in cilantro. Bring to a boil, then simmer, uncovered until the beans are very tender and the liquid is reduced by about 3/4. This will take about one and a half to two hours. Transfer the bone to a plate and let it cool slightly. shred the meat and return it to the pot. Stir in the remaining 4 tablespoons parsley, 2 tablespoons cilantro, salt, and all except 1/4 of a cup of the bell peppers, the remaining 1 tablespoon cumin, the sherry, brown sugar and, lime juice. Simmer another 30 minutes, stirring frequently. Adjust the seasoning and serve hot. Garnish with a dollop of crème fraîche and a sprinkling of the diced peppers and chopped cilantro. Eight large servings or 12 small portions.
