July 27, 2010: Fresh food in Lincoln Park.
by jodyl - July 25th, 2010OK. Here’s the deal. It’s late, and I’m really tired, so I don’t have anything clever or witty to impart to you this evening.

New this week: Godmother’s Pizza and Subs. From Stefano Romanello, Manager:
“Godmother’s Pizza and Subs has been owned by the Romanello family since 1999. Being a family run business we take pride in making the highest quality products using the best ingredients. All of our ingredients are made fresh with no food dyes or preservatives. We create the products and tastes that we ourselves grew up on. We are excited to be a part of the Tremont Farmers Market. At the shop our main menu focus is pizza, subs, and dinners. TFM will give us the opportunity to expose more people to some of our existing flavors such as our sauces, and also offer a lot of new items not yet offered at the shop. At the TFM the Godmother’s stand will offer homemade authentic Italian items to create your own pizzas and dinners at home. Tremont is an extremely diverse and supportive community which mimics our micro community at Godmothers. We are looking forward to having fun and being part of the farmers market. Thank you and buon appetito.”
