There is this neat little place in town named Romano's. I hear people rave about it all the time but had never tried it. It's right next to our favorite bakery, Moreno's. Usually for lunch we go somewhere "just down the road" but the same ol' thing gets, well old. Today we decided to try Romano's and it was fantastic! They are actually a Greek Italian place. They have a nicely sized menu with plenty of variety. I got the H & H, half a Greek salad and a souvlaki chicken pita. I didn't even make it to the pita. I ate half the salad and was full. When she brought the dishes out I saw the salad dressing and it looked pretty pink. I wasn't sure I would like it. Ahhh..one bite and I was sold! Their dressing is heavenly. I am also not one for potato salad w/my actual salad but they layered it with the potato salad on the bottom. It was perfect. I ate the pita for dinner and it was scrumptious! My husband got the Cuban. He is not one to offer compliments. I knew he was as pleased as me when he said we would definitely be back and his compliments to the chef. He said instead of just throwing cold cuts on the cuban bread and pressing it, they seem to cook/warm the meat before putting it on the bread and then press it. It must have been good because he inhaled it and said he may go back while I am gone later this week.
So, if you live locally, do yourself a favor and try Romano's off 60 by Publix. It's right in between Auto Clinic and Moreno's Bakery.
*If you go, stop into Moreno's for dessert. They are amazing!!
