Seasons, Eagle ID.

I have finally found a place in Idaho that serves my favorite southern sandwich, the Muffeletta. Seasons Wine Bar and Deli is located in the newly constructed area of Eagle on the north side of Old State Street. If you haven’t been there yet I would classify it as a must visit type of place. Nice selection of wines, beer and gourmet* dips, dressings and goodies all for individual sale as well as a sit down restaurant. Good size section of out door seating as well.

There menu is just large enough to provide the options needed for a nice lunch or dinner. Mostly made up of salads and sandwiches, they also have a couple of deserts and display case of Moonstruck chocolates to choose from.

On this day I am meeting a good friend of mine for lunch and neither of us is disappointed with our choice. He has the club that is packed with meat and served on what appears to be a homemade wheat bread. I of course get the Muffeletta, actually half of a Ham Muffeletta. Although this is not the traditional New Orleans fare it’s close enough to give that authentic taste of the south. Seasons serves two versions, ham and turkey, leaving out the fatty Italian meats of the original jazz city delight. A full sandwich is $18 and large enough for 4 people to eat along with a side dish a piece. The half of sandwich costs $9.50 and was large enough to eat for lunch for two days. I could be giving this place to much credit but when your buddy buys you lunch it might all just look and tastes better. Thanks for lunch Harold!!!!

* Gourmet – I hate to use this word. I think it’s over used in today’s society but struggle to find another word to describe the syrups, dressings, dips and marinades on the shelves in there homemade jars and bottles. Check them out for yourselves. http://seasonsdelicatering.com/
