Where in NJ can I find a good Panini sandwich??

I have had an unbelievable craving for pressed sandwiches recently.  I hope I'm not pregnant!!

I'm not sure, maybe Garfield. I'll check for you. I know the feeling; recently made a monstrous muffuletta to satiate the craving.

I think the word Panini here might mean different things to different people. In an Italian deli, they just mean "sandwiches". You mention pressed sandwiches, I think this is more commonly known as a "Croque Monsieur", usually with some type of melted cheese.

Nordstrom's cafe used to make a pressed Croque Monsieur type sandwich, but I haven't been in quite a while. You might have to go to the city....

Will a Cuban sandwich do? If so, try Sabor Latino on Monroe St in Passaic.

I'm a NYC expat. Since coming to the darkside, as many of my freinds have said, I've found that most good things in NYC are made in NJ.

Migdalias Cuban Cafe, also in Bergenfield, makes a helluva sangweech. And you can go to Custardthing to compare and have ice cream afterwards.

Il Forno in Montclair just opened a small restaurant on South Fullerton (I think it's on that street - right around the corner from Church St) & I believe they have pannini.

oh, they have panini all right. don't forget the original location on bellevue ave. i am addicted to their panini--i have to have one a couple times a month. try the turkey, provolone, pesto & balsalmic. :wub: that's amore!
