I made another little trip out to Bakery Gingham recently, and this time I decided to give their neighbor, The Brown Bag Deli a try for lunch. Talk about a dynamic duo… these two places are just delicious!

I had a hard choice in front of me as I stood before their huge wall menu, everything looked good! But I picked “The Village Addiction” because I figured if everyone in German Village is addicted to it, how bad could it be?

“Village Addiction” is a wonderful sandwich of smoked turkey breast and Havarti cheese, with cranberry mayonnaise on grilled sourdough bread.
I’ve always loved a great grilled cheese sandwich, and this one was truly excellent! The turkey and the cranberry were a winning combination, as always. The Havarti cheese was mild, and perfectly melted. This sandwich is a five out five! I’ll order it again and again!

I also want to talk about that fantastic pickle you see in the picture above. Every good deli should have a great pickle… and Brown Bag certainly does! Wow. The perfect sour and dill taste, and a pleasing crunch! I might drive all the way down to German Village for a pickle, so the pickle gets it’s own five out of five stars.

Then for dessert I had a fantastic cupcake from good ol’ Bakery Gingham. My ultimate favorite! I decided to try their “cupcake of the day” which was a yummy lemon cupcake with a raspberry reduction and butter cream icing. Like all the other cupcakes from Bakery Gingham, including the ones I brought home with me, it was wonderful!

So as usual, a 5 out of 5 for cupcakes!
