Fret not, sandwiches are still the afternoon staple here, served with chips and salad when you dine in. The space seems to have retained about 80% of the setting from previous tenant The Daily Roundup, but if you've not been here before, just know that it's a much bigger seating area that allows you to have a more relaxed dining experience.

Based on the Carnitas Torta sandwich that I had, I'd say the portion is a "regular" size compared to the ginormous original which can be enough to satisfy both lunch and dinner. I actually think I prefer this pulled pork version than PBJ's Cubano - it's not as savoury due to its "cleaner" profile, but the milder Mexican flavours of the mashed black beans, guacamole and ricotta cream were still palatable with the occasional jolt from the spicy jalapeño.

1KS also serves salads and breakfast friendly options such as Acai bowl, Avo toast and Bufala toast. The healthy eating extends to their beverage selection of cold press juices and smoothies - I thoroughly enjoyed my Scary Terry that contains Maqui berry (similar to Acai but has much higher antioxidant properties), mulberry, blueberry, banana and chia seeds blended in almond milk, the latter which I usually dislike but the berry mix offsets the woody taste.
