Lunch is calling, and the Oliver Hazard Perry is ready to answer. 🫡

Piled high with crispy pork belly, fresh lettuce, vine ripened tomatoes, homemade onions rings, and our scratch-made garlic aioli, this fan favorite is served on a perfectly toasted ciabatta roll and packed with bold flavor in every bite.

Named in honor of Rhode Island native Oliver Hazard Perry, the celebrated naval commander known as the “Hero of Lake Erie,” this sandwich pays tribute to a local legend whose leadership helped shape American history during the War of 1812.

Whether you're a history buff or just hungry for an unforgettable lunch, the Oliver Hazard Perry is a mission worth accepting.

Only available at Local Hero Deli in Pawtucket Rhode Island. Stop on by or place an order on DoorDash.

Stop buying Pesto and take 10 to 15 minutes to make it from scratch!

All the Ingredients you would need

2 cups fresh basil leaves (stems removed)
2 tablespoons garlic
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons pine nuts

Instructions:

Step 1: Add the Base Ingredients
Place the following ingredients into a food
processor:

Basil leaves
Garlic
Kosher salt
Olive oil
Lemon juice
Parmesan cheese

Step 2: Blend the Mixture
Pulse and blend until the ingredients are well combined and begin to form a smooth paste.

Step 3: Add the Pine Nuts
Add the pine nuts and blend again. If needed, add a small amount of extra olive oil to reach the desired consistency that you are looking for.

Step 4: Finish and Serve
Continue blending until the pesto is smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning if desired. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Simplified, straightforward and easy to make.

At Local Hero Deli, we make the active choice to make our Pesto Sauce without any nuts. This by no means ruins the blend, but allows everyone to enjoy the sauce on several of our sandwich's safely.

Hot off the grill and straight from the big screen, the Viola Davis is a fan favorite at Local Hero Deli.

This delicious creation features our scratch-made tuna salad, Vermont white cheddar, and applewood-smoked bacon, all pressed between two slices of perfectly toasted sourdough bread.

Named in honor of Hollywood legend and Central Falls, Rhode Island native Viola Davis, this sandwich is every bit as bold and unforgettable as its namesake.

From our kitchen to the world stage, we’re proud to serve this masterpiece at Local Hero Deli and we can’t recommend it enough.

Tuna Salad that is simple, easy to make, and delicious!

That's our focus today! Throwing a huge shout to CopperWood Trail Horse Farm, for requesting on how we make it here at Local Hero Deli and how you can make it at home.

All the ingredients that you'll need:

2 cans Albacore Tuna (dolphin-safe)
Black pepper
1 stalk celery
½ cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons relish

Step 1: Drain the Tuna
Open 2 cans of dolphin-safe Albacore Tuna.
Place a strainer over a bowl and drain out all the water or oil.

Step 2: Flake the Tuna
Using your hands, firmly squeeze out any extra liquid from the tuna.

Place the tuna into a separate mixing bowl and flake it apart until soft and shredded.

Step 3: Prep the Ingredients
Dice 1 stalk of celery into small pieces and add it to the bowl.

Add: A few dashes of black pepper, ½ cup, mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons relish. We also have a video on how to make relish, if you're curious.

Step 4: Mix Everything Together
Stir and blend everything thoroughly until the mixture is fully combined and creamy.

That took no time at all, and it's incredibly easy to make.

Huge thank you to absolutely love the work you're doing up in Canada.

From our kitchen to yours.
