Tacone

Located in Green Valley's swank mall, The District, Tacone is a fast-food-style franchise -- whoops, the appropriate terminology is quick-service gourmet franchise -- that serves wraps, salads and grilled sandwiches.

Sandwich-wise, the Great Gobbler is a good start. Served on grilled ciabatta bread, it rises to the level of pretty-goodness on the delicious interaction of the fresh turkey, the artichoke-pesto spread and the honey-mustard dressing. Another tasty sandwich is the United Steaks of America (filet mignon and melted jack) with rosemary-chili flake mayo. Wraps include the Mambo, a Cuban-style wrap fat with marinated filet mignon, rice, onions and peppers; the Campfire, a barbecued chicken wrap; and the Thai Cone wrap, which features a spicy peanut sauce.

The menu also includes salads (a Caesar topped with garlic tortilla strips; the Spa, a medley of gourdy vegetables and pumpkin seeds).

Tacone's sweet-potato fries are quite good. They come with what the menu calls "our homemade fruity dipping sauce." Top off your sandwiches and wraps with some of the sauces available at the condiment bar. And wash it all down with a refreshing nonfat frozen yogurt smoothie such as the Orangabang -- bananas, strawberries, orange juice and apple juice -- or the Palm Peach -- peach, banana, strawberries and orange juice.
