The Cutting Board

When I lived in California I worked in a business park in Santa Monica. There was a Korean couple, Sonny and Won (sp), that owned a small sandwich shop in the business park called "The Cutting Board". Now the cutting board didn't serve the best food, just simple sandwiches like turkey on wheat, and there were much better options in the neighborhood, but the place always had a line. People went there out of convienence. It was literally in the business park, on the first floor. Anytime you walked outside (bank, mailbox, gym) you passed it and they even had a guy who would deliver your order to your office, you can't get much more convienent then that. I'm not sure how much those guys were making, but there operating costs couldn't have been much and like I said, there was always a line. I'd like to start a list of similar places in the triangle. The first place that pops in my head is "The Village Deli" in Morrisville. While its much more upscale then "The Cutting Board" it sticks to the same basic principle: a simple menu located near a business park offering the lunch time crowd a good, quick place to eat.
