Sally Bell's Kitchen is a local, family-owned eatery that has been serving homemade sandwiches, salads, baked goods and boxed lunches in Richmond for nine decades.
They are especially known for those boxed lunches.
"Inside each box is a happy meal from a better time." - Bon Appétit
"Almost every element in a Sally Bell’s lunchbox is made from scratch that morning, from the mayonnaise in the potato salad to the zest-flecked orange icing on the cupcake. And you can tell." - The New York Times
For the boxed lunches, you choose a sandwich, side and cupcake. Includes devil egg half & cheese wafer.
I chose a cream cheese and olive spread samdwich. I had never tried this particular sandwich before, and I was intrigued. This Southern sandwich was creamy and salty.
The side of potato salad was a little sweet, a little tart. And topped with a pickle slice.
Deviled eggs are always a solid choice. I like mine to be a bit tangier, but these were still delicious.
Their cupcakes are iced upside down, which is a little different. But that sweet bite at the end - perfection.
