Winners:

Company with best lunchtime options

• Premera Blue Cross
• Astronics Advanced Electronic Systems (AES)
• The Fairmont Olympic Hotel

The days of bland cafeteria food and taco trucks may be numbered. Companies such as Premera Blue Cross offer made-to-order grills for their employees now, so workers can eat as healthily as they desire. Astronics Advanced Electronic Systems offers its employees discounted catered lunches on Tuesdays and Thursdays and has bagels delivered daily. And a worker at the Fairmont Olympic describes the daily, free spread that staffers get: "There's a choice of salad bar, a vegetarian entrée or a meat entrée at the hotel. And there is always dessert, too."

Honorable mention:

Seattle Citysearch
As one happy Citysearcher puts it, "Three words: Uwajimaya Food Court." The Web site company is based near the cheap food mecca of Pioneer Square and the International District. The Pike Place Market is just a bus ride away, too.
