Cheap Eats 2006

Peanut Butter & Ellie's aims right for the kid crowd, but you have to love a lofty establishment that also pays homage to the PB&J. This high-ceilinged, metropolitan-chic bakery's version is delightfully no-frills: peanut butter and Oregon raspberry preserves on house-baked Italian country-style bread ($1.50 half/$2 whole). Other brilliantly simple sandwiches include the olive-oil-kissed tuna salad on a fresh French roll ($4) and the flavor-packed chevre and olive tapenade on a chewy demi-baguette ($2.50/$4). (KD)
