Our family loves living in Gainesville...everybody knows that! But there has always been one thing missing for us from the city's gastronomic offerings - great garlic rolls! Yes, Leonardo's 706 has pretty good garlic rolls, and the other Leonardos has whole wheat offerings, but no loaded-with-fresh-garlic, dripping in olive oil, melt-in-your mouth killer garlic rolls like we used to get at The Big Cheese in Miami or even some Italian restaurants in Kentucky.
The Original Pizza Palace really doesn't look like much from 13th street, but I drove by at night last week when I could see through the tinted windows that it was really cute and artsy inside. Kyle and I decided to give it a try at lunch a few days later and were so pleased with not only the garlic rolls but the salad and well, everything!
They make all their dough onsite fresh every morning. Delicious! Doesn't the picture speak for itself?? I just hope my endorsement doesn't seal its doom; a lot of places I like have gone out of business. :-(
Please tell me if you know of other GGGR's (Great Gainesville Garlic Rolls,) but it is going to be hard to beat the Original Pizza Palace!
