Perfect Soup and Sandwich


Headed over to Roswell today to check out a new lunch spot. Tough to find and tucked away at the end of a long street of restaurants and cafes is Artisan Bakery. The great news is that it is worth the hunt. My friend and I both chose the daily special, a shrimp and avocado stuffed pita accompanied by 5 bean soup. The pita was incredibly light and fresh, the sandwich overflowing with veggies and fat, pink shrimp and the soup was "beany" and hardy. We checked out the surrounding tables to spy on other entrees and they all looked wonderful. For dessert we split an order of lemony hot powdered sugar beignets - 3 big boys that disappeared quickly. A hot and foamy and strong cafe au lait is the quintessential partner, and the Artisan version did not disappoint.
