The store might be known for beer and wine selection, but a food gold mine hides in the back.
When stopping at Merchants Gourmet Wine Shop on Owen Road in Fenton, I breeze by the massive wine and adult beverage selections and head directly to the deli. My love of sandwiches far surpasses my appreciation for wine, in fact, I don't recall ever having purchased wine while at Merchants. The deli sits at the back of the store and is a sandwich gold mine. A menu can help serve as a guide for your selection or design your dream sandwich from deli ingredients. The quality of the meat and cheeses at Merchants is superb. Put it all on your bread of choice — Rye, Pumpernickle, White, Wheat, Onion Roll, Sub, Pita, or Lawash. Unusual sandwiches on the menu include Dinty Moore, Liverwurst, Veggie and Meatball. My all time favorite is peppered …

Between a gasoline station and a trucking company, you can find Beale Street Smokehouse.
If you aren't looking for Beale Street Smokehouse BBQ, you may miss it. This award-winning barbecue establishment adjoins Smitty's Exit 80, a Sunoco gas station at 2461 North Rd., just off Exit 80 of U.S. 23. Don't let Beale Street's neighbor fool you into believing this isn't a place worth visiting. Entrees: I have visited Beale Street for lunch and dinner and had very different experiences with each meal. When I was there for dinner, I had the pulled pork sandwich, which was reminiscent of homemade pulled pork with no hint of having been frozen — as can often be the case when ordering this entree. That was also the first time I'd tasted sweet potato french fries, which quickly became a favorite. Based on that experience, I was excited …

Entrees: Sandwiches rule the menu at Mega Coney Island — gyros, pitas, melts and all of the regulars dominate a good portion of your ordering choices. The rest of the menu is …
