With its day-glo yellow walls and two red upholstered benches, Quench may not be much to look at. But don't let appearances fool you: The eatery serves up some of the tastiest fast food in the city, with a healthy slant, to boot. Beef or pork have been swapped with healthier meats like chicken and turkey, along with soy products that grounding familiar dishes veggie-style. The healthier meat-free versions of the Italian beef, patty melt, Philly cheesesteak, burger and gyro won't have you missing the real thing. The spinach pizza puff with whole wheat dough is to die for; as gooey, rich and flavorful as the kind you ate as a kid, but much better for you. Cajun fish sandwiches and fish dinners are perfect for those who'd like something in the middle.

For those who require real meat, the turkey polish, chicken gyro and other Maxwell Street/Greektown-inspired dishes will do the trick. But forget your diet for a moment and be sure to try the fries. Crispy and fried in pure vegetable oil, these are some of the city's best. Fruit lemonades in flavors like pineapple, raspberry and strawberry and fruit smoothies add a solid vitamin C punch. My only Quench complaint? That it isn't open on Sunday!
