""We focus on freshly baked focaccia made daily, carefully sourced Italian meats and cheeses and simple recipes that highlight flavor and authenticity," Merolla says. "For us, a great sandwich starts with exceptional bread, balanced ingredients and the feeling of sharing real Italian food made with passion and family values.""
"A winning bite is La Riccia, made with crispy porchetta, eggplant, mozzarella and porcini-mushroom spread ($18). It's hearty yet light-feeling, thanks to that airy and oven-crisp focaccia."
