I recently visited Parma Cafe & tried their Saumon Fume sandwich, alongside the Parma Club & it was fantastic. In my opinion the the combination of smoked salmon, olive tapenade, fresh greens, & red onions was perfect - definitely my favorite. The combo meal included a surprisingly large portion of truffle fries, which were absolutely delicious & a pleasant surprise. Did NOT expect so much fries. If you are with someone it wouldn't be a bad idea to just get one & share. Parma Cafe has a great atmosphere & delicious food. Thought it would be a light small snack but left feeling very full.

My director & I went to try it out for lunch one day. We absolutely loved it & enjoyed every bite, so she had it catered for our daycare to celebrate teacher appreciation. All of us educators enjoyed it very much. Delicious, healthy, comfort food. Italian style! I highly recommend.
