It shouldn't come as a surprise that one of the best pizza-makers in the country -- James Beard Award-winning chef Chris Bianco -- also makes stand-out sandwiches with crispy, olive-oil-glistened focaccia, house-made mozzarella, and salty soppressata. Pane Bianco's sandwiches are only served during lunch; at dinner, they give way to red-sauce Italian entrées like lasagne, eggplant parmesan, and most importantly, Bianco's famed wood-fired pizzas.
