Coppola's Deli, S Colonial Avenue, Richmond


This is the new comfort food. Forget the tuna melt - the house special is a Cheese Steak sub with 100% beef steak, grilled onions, hot & sweet peppers, covered with provolone cheese, mustard and ketchup (I refrain from this element) on a freshly baked roll. More child friendly is a shared turkey and tomato roll with an organic "Adam and Eve" apple juice box. The staff are a delightful mix of the old-hand Italian and the kind-student variety.
