Red Onion -- Church Street, Burlington
I know that you can get the full range of deli sandwiches at the Red Onion Bakery, but I've only ever gotten one because frankly there is no reason to order anything else other than, the Red Onion sandwich. Real turkey, red onions, a soft cheese (could be a gruyere, but I'm not positive ) and thousand Island dressing on toasted marble rye and served warm. Oh my! It is perfection, food of the gods no doubt. Something this good costs, however, and the last time I indulged in a Red Onion (plus a drink), I don't remember getting a lot of change back from $10. There are get sandwiches and great places to get a sandwich on Church Street, but the Red Onion is in a league of its own. There is an on-site bakery as well, but take a ride over to "Great Harvest" if you want the best bakery in town (see my review). Red Onion also serves desserts, I'm partial to their outstretched-palm-sized "snikerdoodle" cookies, but the brownies are a safe bet too. You can take your Red Onion away and eat it in the comfort of your own home/desk/whatever or you can eat-in. The decor is best described as funky(funkier if school is in session) and eclectic with art from local artists covering the walls.
