Be sure to go in before the lunch rush if you want

Be sure to go in before the lunch rush if you want to snag one of the handmade daily paninis to accompany your perfectly steamed cappuccino at Caffe Senso Unico. The crispy, meaty, cheesy Italian sandwiches are molto bello, as owner Mario Gelmini will tell you. Sip from imported Italian pottery and browse a copy of Vogue Italia while you crunch through the perfectly crisp bread of the “Cristina,” featuring grilled portobello mushrooms, thick, fresh mozzarella, and roasted turkey breast. Regardless of the state of your Italian, you’ll know what he meant.—Maggie Mertens 622 Olive Way, 264-7611.
