The ladies'-lunch look of Pam’s is reinforced with a menu that seems to center on soups and sandwiches. But the varied audience suggests more is going on here. A gutsy gazpacho delivers yet another hint---though some soups suggest more than they deliver. Even a sandwich stuffed with chicken breast, marinated red onions and more comes across as (junior) leagues above the tuna-salad mentality of most tearoom-type places. Yet a bold-sounding sandwich such as Alex’s Big Rip turns into a messy train wreck of chicken salad, Russian dressing and guacamole. More ambitious evening entrées include a chicken saltimbocca, seared salmon pomodoro and chicken tinga tacos. But as much as we hate falling into the stereotypical dessert trap, Pam is a baking queen, and her cakes, lemon bars and luscious Key lime tarts are the stuff of legend.
