There is probably no better value for a quick and dirty lunch downtown than the Ham Shop (Shoppe?). For a mere 5 bucks, you can get either 2 cheeseburgers or 2 coney dogs, fries and a beverage. McDonald's can't even beat that these days.
The Ham Shop was gone for several months after their building was demolished in Greektown, however, they reappeared recently a few blocks away in the space formerly occupied by Bahn Thai. While the atmosphere of the restaurant is much improved over their former place, in my opinion, carry out is still the way to go.
One of the Ham Shop's specialties is their bean soup, which may be the best around.
While I can't promise you'll feel "healthy" or "good about yourself" after a Ham Shop meal, I can promise you'll be filled and satisfied through the rest of the work day.
