The dish is surprisingly ornate, served up with green garnish and flat bread.The paninis on the menu cater to the tastes the pasta misses. Specialities include grilled ham and gouda, buffalo mozzarella and vine-ripened tomatoes, and herbed goat cheese and olives. No matter the combo, all paninis are deliciously priced at $6.25. A friend orders a sandwich with prosciutto, mozzarella, and tomatoes on ciabatta. It is enormous, hot, and crispy, a “preemptively pleasing?...
