Update on Sammy's
Sammy’s Bakery on MacArthur is now open on Sundays from 10 AM to 3 PM. And a good thing, too. I picked up a pepperoni and cheese focaccia for lunch. The bread was light and airy. The pepperoni was crispy and combined with the cheese there was a little salt action going on. A little bit of heaven smack in the middle of Northside. We consumed an equally divine rose – a Spanish Vina Aljibes Rosado (~$10.00 from Once Upon a Vine). Dry with prominent strawberry overtones amd a marvelous dark pink color.
Had the Rosado at a wine tasting at Once Upon a Vine recently and I'm hooked. The man hosting the tasting said many restaurants use it as a base for their sangria. We tired making sangria at home using this wine and it was a perfect fit.
