Zuppa's Deli (Wexford): Take Two

This is a long overdue second post on Zuppa's Deli in Wexford.  I had raved about Zuppa's Veggie Sammy in one of my early blog posts and have since visited Zuppa's several more times (even turning a few friends into Zuppa's fans in the process).  R. had the Veggie Sammy himself when I took him there a few weeks ago and concurred with my assessment, and my sister tried a bite of my Veggie Sammy on another visit and gave it a two-thumbs up.  Nonetheless, in my more recent visits, I have ventured beyond my favorite sandwich of all time and tried some of the other items on Zuppa's menu, one of which was the meatabulous Meat Loaf Panini, with applewood smoked bacon, asiago cheese, housemade meatloaf and mashed potatoes, topped with Zuppa's own BBQ sauce and fried onion straws:

On another visit I checked out their Tomato Basil Panini, with oven roasted tomatoes, housemade basil pesto, and fresh mozzarella:

Both sandwiches were fantastic and highly recommended, though the Tomato Bisque really takes the cake.  This slow-roasted tomato soup with a touch of cream and sherry made me sad when I finished my last bite:

If you haven't checked out Zuppa's yet, you most definitely should!
