NEW MENU ITEMS AT ONE OF LAKE COUNTYíS HOTTEST RESTAURANTS
Diners Leave their Hearts in San Francisco at Bay-themed Eatery
WILLOUGHBY, OH, October 22, 2002 ñ As Clevelanders prepare for the long, cold winter, Willoughby restaurant San Francisco Oven offers new, hearty comfort food menu offerings that will bring diners a taste (and a hint of warmth) from the Bay Area. Less than a year old, the San Francisco-themed restaurant has attracted a large local following for favorites including oven-baked pizzas, homemade soups and sandwiches.
Now available are three new additions to the innovative menu with a West Coast flavor:
Napa Valley Chicken & Spinach Lasagna ñ A tasty twist on this hearty favorite, dark chicken meat replaces beef or sausage, making it savory and less fattening. Diners can enjoy a large slice served with side salad and garlic toast at dinner for $8.50.
Lafayette French Dip ñ Itís the dip that makes this warm sandwich so delicious. French bread topped with roasted garlic horseradish mayonnaise and piled with four ounces of tender, lean roast beef. The sandwich is served with a side of homemade French Onion soup for dipping ñ a distinctive difference from traditional au jus. A choice of specialty potato chips or Pasta Florentine completes the meal for $5.95.
Chicken Caesar Wrap ñ Romaine lettuce, Romano cheese, and grilled strips of chicken are tossed with Caesar dressing and wrapped in pizza dough thatís stretched and lightly browned, giving it a unique texture and flavor. The wrap is a creation of Laura and Lisa Pece, 16-year-old twin sister employees of the restaurant who discovered that the pizza dough was the perfect way to turn a Caesar salad into a sandwich. The wrap is served with specialty chips or Pasta Florentine for $5.95.
Freshness, from ingredients to menu items, is what sets San Francisco Oven apart. All selections are homemade, including over 28 different soups, which are rotated on a daily basis. Nothing arrives pre-prepared, packaged, boxed or frozen from a manufacturer. Counter service allows diners to order exactly what they wish and wait just a few minutes while their custom order is made fresh before their eyes.
ìWe want to offer customers the quality of home cooking with convenience and comfort at an affordable price,î explains concept co-founder Eddie Cerino. ìDiners can get a meal made to order in five minutes, combining the speed of fast food dining with the quality of a casual dining experience.î
San Francisco Oven was inspired by the Bay areaís culinary tradition of embracing the worldís finest cuisines. Restaurateurs and lifelong pals Eddie Cerino and Matt Harper have used a combination of architecture, decorating and menu development to give customers a dining experience with authentic San Francisco flavor.
