The cretzel
Field Table, 10 W. Mifflin St.
This love match between a salty, crusty pretzel and a soft buttery croissant comes stuffed — sometimes with pimento cheese, sometimes with beer-cheese spread. It’s diminutive in size but not in flavor. Addiction potential is off the charts.
Cheese ficelle
Batch Bakehouse, 1402 Williamson St.
It’s a skinny baguette kissed with pecorino romano cheese — crisp and chewy bready goodness. Batch bakes the ficelle Tuesday-Friday.
Bacon and cheese bread
Salvatore’s Tomato Pies, 912 E. Johnson St. and
503 W. Main St., Sun Prairie
This appetizer of Jones Farm bacon, Farmer John’s colby caliente and smoked Gouda on a Stalzy’s baguette, all hot and gooey from the oven, can make you forget all about the pizza. And that’s saying something.
