If you like sandwiches, we have a real treat! Our Italian-style paninis are the stuff dreams are made of ✨

Named for St Anthony - the patron saint of pigs, and their farmers - and inspired by Anthony Bourdain's famous mortadella and provolone sandwich, our St Anthony is a winning combination of spicy soppresatta with buttery provolone and Dijon mayo. Add basil pesto, or Georgian green adjika and kick it up a notch.

What's adjika? So glad you asked! From Georgia (the country) this sauce is a green, herbal, flavour bomb! Parsley, dill, mint, cilantro, celery leaves, fenugreek, jalapeno, garlic, lemon juice and olive oil. You'll want to put it on everything. We do!

Available at The Emmet Ray Café daily, while they last!
