This Just In ...

Another rose on Franklin's bush


Sendik's Fine Foods opens Wednesday, July 9 at the Shoppes of Wyndham Village at Highway 100 and Drexel.

This opening is somewhat anti-climactic, lacking the fanfare of the Sendik's Grand Opening at 52nd and Rawson last fall. Since then, a Sendik's opened at 79th and Layton. However, this development is significant, given Franklin will have, not one, but two Sendiks'.

The official ribbon-cutting is at 9:00 Wednesday morning and the doors open to the public at 10:00. If you've not witnessed the Sendik's experience, you're in for a real treat. I'd recommend the pizza burgers, Swiss and mushroom burgers, the seafood, the chicken soup cheese, horseradish cheese, the pretzel buns, the sun-dried tomato pasta salad, anything in the deli, and the cheese pockets in the bakery section. But as they say, it's all good.

This might be a good time to revisit an old blog of mine that addressed having two Sendiks' in Franklin.
