What’s New in Sandwich? Food Trolleys, Home Decor & Ice Cream

I was invited to visit a friend in Sandwich for Labor Day Weekend, so seized the opportunity to check out one of the oldest communities in Massachusetts & on the Cape. In spite of the pending recession, the crazy stock market and Hurricane Irene, Sandwich seems to be doing quite well!

Fiddlestix Food Trolley

Fiddlestix Food Trolley, Sandwich

Heidi Pleso, the owner of Fiddlestix Trolley, the newest “restaurant mobile” in Sandwich, is a well-respected chef, having worked at the Belfry Bistro, Whistleberries and at the New Seabury Country Club, among others.

Now she’s offering an affordable lunch on a stick with an international flair like Cajun Shrimp with Kilbasa  Sausage, or Falafels on Flatbread or Teriyaki Shrimp with sticky rice. All for less than $10, and served in 2 minutes flat.

Check out the website for truck locations and times.

Casa Bella Home Décor

Casa Bella, Sandwich

If you’re tired of everything looking like Pottery Barn or a similar style, Casa Bella Home Furnishings is a new home décor boutique that will appeal to you. Especially if you like a European style, and/or very unique objets d’art, there’s something for everyone here. Plus, they completely change out the store every two months, so better buy it now, it won’t still be there when you return!

Even though these items look VERY expensive, you’ll be pleasantly surprised with the pricing. But the best thing about this shop, is you can’t find it anywhere else.

The Shipwreck Ice Cream

The Shipwreck Ice Cream, Sandwich

Last but NOT least, Mashpee’s Polar Cave Ice Cream is expanding to Sandwich at The Shipwreck Ice Cream Shop. All locally made ice cream, with fun flavors like Moose Tracks, vanilla ice cream, fudge swirls and peanut butter cups and Chocolate Decadence, brownie bites, fudge swirls and chocolate ice cream.

They’ll even serve your dog a kiddie cup of vanilla with a doggie biscuit!

Any way you look at it, Sandwich is a hopping place to be!
