Caffe Calabria

Located in North Park Caffe Calabria is not just a coffee shop, but is also a whole sale roaster and supplier. Suffice to say, they know their stuff when it comes to the coffee business.

But there is so much more to Calabria than just coffee. Calabria also serves panini sandwiches, pizza, beer and wine.

I visited the cafe for lunch and ordered a prosciotto panini and ice tea. The panini contains mozzarella cheese, tomatoes, basil and herbs between artisan ciabatta bread. The panini was pressed in a commercial press until the cheese slightly oozing out, and the prosciotto provided a salty bite. The sandwhich was like a hot caprese salad with cured ham, and it turns out to be a very smart, delicious flavor combination.
