Review: The Local Omnivore

I’m not much of a bread girl. Some of my bread loving friends are always in shock when they learn that about me. Most sandwiches I find pretty uninspiring, or certainly not interesting enough to be one of my first picks for a meal. That’s why when I find a place that does sandwiches r...
