Lunch Special Mon. – Fri. 10:30am-2:00pm
$8.99 will get your choice of sandwich, one side and a drink!  Not bad!

A new sidewalk cafe has opened in Parker Square and based on the lunch we enjoyed there last week, this little stop will quickly become a local favorite.  For just $8.99, I had a mouth-watering Tuscan Turkey Pesto Panini made with Turkey, Bacon, Mozarella, Spinach, Roasted Red Bell Peppers, Tomatoes, Sun Dried Tomato Pesto Mayo, all on grilled Ciabatta Bread.  I chose the pasta salad (which was some of the best I’ve had in a while), my drink and I was happily content as I walked out of the restaurant carrying enough to enjoy the next day for lunch as well. Square One Cafe - Parker Square
   

Square One Sidewalk Cafe comes from the vision of three Le Cordon Bleu graduates.  By combining their culinary knowledge, standards for the best ingredients (they use all Boar’s Head meats and the freshest ingredients around) and experience, they have created a menu exceptional in both taste and nutrition.

Stop by and have some lunch today!  Bring the kids for hand-tossed mac & cheese and play with the sidewalk chalk they provide on each patio table.  You’re going to love this place!

Red, White and Blueberry Fruit Salad

We found this recipe in Disney’s Family Fun Magazine.  Tossed in fresh lime juice and garnished with mint, this combination of juicey strawberries, diced apples and fresh blueberries makes a refreshing treat on its own.  Spoon it over ice cream and you’ve got an irresistible 4th of July dessert!
Red, White and Blueberry Fruit Salad
 
1/4 cup fresh lime juice 3 cups fresh blueberries
1/4 cup honey 1 quart fresh strawberries, hulled & halved
2 Tblsp. chopped fresh mint 3 medium apples, peeled and cut into
   1 inch chunks
   
  • In a bowl, whisk together lime juice, honey and mint.  Add all of the fruit and toss to combine.  Let the fruit salad set for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.   Serves about 8.
HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!
