$5 for $10 Worth of Coffee, Cookies, Sandwiches, Pizza and More at Schillaci Cafe & Espresso Bar

Eating fresh and local, unlike eating stale and far away, comes with several benefits. Besides the obvious ones of saving the environment and the lining of your stomach, you’ll always be on top of the latest trends in cuisine (hardened bread crusts are so 2004) and you and your mate will never again have to endure the kind of yelling dinner conversation caused by eating at opposite ends of a city. Get your dose of healthy, recently-prepared fare with today’s WagJag, best enjoyed in close proximity to others: $5 for $10 worth of coffee, baked goods, sandwiches and more at Schillaci Cafe & Espresso Bar.

Within a funky, modern setting, Schillaci Cafe & Espresso bar serves up its latest local supplies of fresh produce, meats and breads, shaping each ingredient into delectable salads, gourmet pizza, sandwiches or soups. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, the cafe delivers dishes suited for noshing on at all times of the day. Start off your day with a waffle-heavy breakfast of champions, topped with fruit and whipped cream ($6.50-$9) or supplement an afternoon feed with a soup plus bread ($4.50), slice of gourmet pizza ($3.50-$4.50) or sandwich (ranging from $6.50-$7.50), like the chicken on ciabatta, made with fresh roasted chicken, goat cheese, roasted red and yellow peppers and red onion. Of course, all eats are best accompanied by one of Schillaci’s medium or dark roast coffees ($1.94 for a medium), lattes ($3.50), or smoothies ($4.80) and finished off with a baked good hot out of the oven. Preservative-free dessert choices include brownies ($2.25) or giant chocolate chip cookies ($1.78).
