LIFE AT LAMBRUSCO'Z

Walking into Lambrusco’z in Tulsa's Brookside neighborhood, you instantly get a feeling of comfort and warmth.

I see employees laughing with one another, having fun, all the while getting orders done in a speedy fashion. Stress does not seem to enter Lambrusco'z. Customers can relax on their lunch break while eating good food.

Lambrusco’z has been making sandwiches and catering for more than 30 years. They offer tasty sandwiches at a good price. They serve Boars Head meat, said to be the best meat in the nation.

Describing a typical day at Lambrusco’z, an employee says is a really busy but not stressful.

“Everyone gets here around ten and leaves at seven," she says. "The morning duties are basically finishing up catering orders for the day as well as getting everything ready for the lunch rush. At the lunch rush we make sandwiches, make sure everything is stocked up, and talk to customers."

She continues: "Once three o’clock hits the lunch rush is over and everyone begins working on catering orders for the following day. Around four o’clock the dinner rush slowing starts coming which goes on until we close at seven. The dinner rush consists of making dinners for customers, nothing too hard.

"The people are really fun to work with she says, I enjoy work,” she says.

My first impressions have been confirmed: Lambruso’z is a great place to go for a enjoyable meal. Lambrusco'z is on 41st Street, just east of Peoria, across from Wild Oats Market.
