Today’s grinder comes to you from Rosa’s Deli in Wallingford, which is also where the alternate datacenter is located for the hospital I work at.

 

I hadn’t had eggplant in a while, so I opted for an eggplant and meatball combo.

 

 

Hiding under that glorious layer of eggplant were some very, very tasty meatballs – better than Maple’s, maybe!

 

 

Some places that I’ve visited choose to season their meatballs very mildly, sometimes to the point of blandness, and I was glad that wasn’t the case here.  I need to come back and see what their sausage is like.

 

They also had a full range of Italian dinners.  I keep intending to try those whenever I see them.  A big steaming plate of cacciatore or pizzaiola sounds so good.
