Deli Boutique

I have been here a bunch of times already and the food and coffee is always top notch. Their breakfast roll (sausage, egg, melted cheese and a fluffy crusty roll) is awesome. I have had their curry chicken baguette which is also great and they make/serve LavAzza coffee which is great and will only set you back $2 for a large one.

I've lived within a block of Deli Boutique for a few years, yet I've only wandered in twice.

What is WRONG with me?  Why would I gag myself on yet another Subway sandwich when I could spend *exactly* the same amount of money for a big, fresh, delicious panini at this local shop?  Mark my words, THAT conduct is gonna change!

I wandered in last week and ordered the Collosus panini. What a frickin' treat this was. Salami, another kind of salami, some other meat (ham maybe? I forget.), and fresh mozzarella melted into a delectibly-pressed panini.

...Oh! And then there's the crowning achievement of this palate-pleaser: a delicious spread of  olive tapenade to bring everything together.

Final price? $6.99.  Get outta town!

The first time I visited Deli Boutique I had their Colosseum panino and at the first bite I was immediately brought back to the years I spent living in Italy.  I have only on very rare occasions tasted something that lived up to real Italian flavors.  I have since tried a few other panini from their menu and can say that I am happy with this place every time I visit.  The staff is also very friendly and the shop has a great selection of pre-made deli entrees and sides as well as some specialty foods.
