Yesterday Marilyn and Al took a trip to Joplin. Marilyn had a dental appointment. After her appointment they went to a new restaurant call the Red Onion Espressoria for lunch.
They have eaten in other Red Onion restaurants in town and have always enjoyed their food. This coffee espresso bar had just opened this week. It is on 32nd Street and more conveniently located for them.
The restaurant is small, just about fifteen tables.


They had a Veggie Sandwich and a Baby Spinach and Feta Cheese Salad for their lunch. Their sandwiches contained cucumber dill cream cheese on focaccia roll with sliced cucumbers, tomatoes, sliced red onions, baby greens and sweet vinaigrette. Marilyn also had one of her favorites – an iced Caffe Latte


Marilyn said it was the best meal she has had for some time.

Thanks for contacting us. We have enjoyed eating at the Red Onion & Bella Peppers as well. Yes, we would like to be on your e-mail list. Al & Marilyn are both retired food scientists from Campbell's Soup (Al) and General Mills (Marilyn), and we like to recognize good quality food when we find it.
We also wrote a post about the Bella Pepper restaurant on Jan 24, 2009.
