McLozzi Deli and Marketplace
By Betha Whitlow, SPECIAL TO THE
POST-DISPATCH

St. Louis is seeing a new wave of great delis, but none may
be so devoted to the fine art of the sandwich as McLozzi
Deli and Marketplace.
Settled into a breezy Benton Park corner space, ubernice
owners Dan Krankeola and Mark Catolos are as familiar with
every neighborhood kid and dog as they are with the fine,
often house-made ingredients it takes to turn out such
terrific deli fare.
A large bowl of red pepper and gouda soup ($4.59, soup
changes daily) features the thick, distilled essence of
roasted red pepper, sweet and deep, with a touch of gouda's
nuttiness.
The guys also work wonders with a simple panini press,
turning out a Caprese sandwich ($7.59, with chips) on
marvelously herbaceous focaccia packed with bright,
flavorful tomatoes, an intense, garlicky, basil pesto and
melting fresh mozzarella.
And who knew that the day after Thanksgiving could be
conjured on a hot afternoon in August? The Gobbler ($7.99,
with chips) is a need-both-hands holiday of warm turkey,
buttery-soft stuffing, scallion-dotted cream cheese and
tangy cranberry sauce on grilled, multigrain bread.
Someone fetch me a La-Z-Boy, television and remote control,
already! I think I'll be at McLozzi Deli for a while.

McLozzi Deli & Marketplace
BY GORDON MCKINGHT, SPECIAL TO
THE POST-DISPATCH
10/18/2006
McLozzi Deli & Marketplace is a new business in an old building, and
the proprietors should be credited for a rehabbing job well done.
The menu is small, offering soups, sandwiches and salads. I visited
on a Sunday and was disappointed to learn that soup is not served
that day.
Instead, we started our takeout meal with the McLozzi Salad ($5.99),
a blend of fresh greens, fresh apple (sliced pears are sometimes
substituted), red onion, glazed pecans and crumbled gorgonzola
cheese, all tossed with a blush-wine vinaigrette. I'd asked for
extra dressing, which we didn't need. The salad was quite refreshing
and more than plenty for two.
On the sandwich side, the deli offers five grilled panini. I wanted
to try the Caprese, typically a combination of fresh mozzarella,
basil and tomatoes drizzled with balsamic vinegar. I changed my
mind, however, when I learned that the cheese on this version is the
processed variety, not soft buffalo mozzarella.
Instead, we settled on
the Pollo Panini ($5.99), described as a grilled marinated chicken
breast with artichoke hearts, fresh spinach and provolone cheese. It
was missing the spinach (although the food-safety scare had passed)
and contained just five artichoke leaves and two small chunks of
artichoke hearts. If the cook would combine fresh spinach and the
artichoke hearts in a food processor, making a tapenade to spread on
the chicken, I'd try the sandwich again.
A turkey sandwich with stuffing and cranberry sauce deserves a spot
in the sandwich hall of fame. The Gobbler ($5.99) adds cream cheese
and fresh chives (skip 'em and ask for extra cranberry sauce) served
on toasted sunflower wheat bread. It was a good sandwich, loaded
with turkey and an ample amount of stuffing.
After little more than a month in operation, McLozzi's, the new kid
on the block, seems poised to get better and better: It's only a few
tweaks away.
McLozzi's is open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8
a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
