Happy New Year!! It’s been a while, but sometimes you stumble upon a place you just need to tell people about. That happened today at a little place called Lucy’s Luncheonette.
Lucy’s is located at 749 Saybrook Rd in Middletown. Their claim to fame is sourdough bread, which is why we went. The display case was filled with sourdough, baguettes, loaves of bread, as well as several varieties of muffins. They also have a breakfast and lunch menu with many choices. Today, we ordered a simple ham and cheese with lettuce and tomato on a baguette. Now, you know my philosophy of the bread makes the sandwich. This was the case today. It could have been just plain bread and butter and it would have been fantastic. The simple hame and cheese was elevated by the crispy, crusty delicious roll it came on. While I was paying, I overheard the owner say she was taking hot cinnamon rolls out of the oven. Of course we got one. I couldn’t put into words how good it was. They have been open for 2 months. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Let’s hope they are around for a long time.
So if you find yourself driving around Middletown and want to satisfy your hunger (and sweet tooth), run to this little place called Lucy’s Luncheonette!! You will be glad you did!
