Bread

At the River Cafe we serve and use pugliese and ciabatta bread. Pugliese is a large round country-style loaf made with sourdough from the previous day’s batch. It’s often made with a mixture of flours, and has a good texture for bruschetta. Ciabatta, made with olive oil, resembles a slipper in shape. We use it in our bread soups and toasted in slices rubbed with garlic for crostini.
