Locally picked apples are just one element in the "farm-to-table" concept at the new Degage Express: Soups, Sandwiches and Such. The concept cafe highlights fresh food made with locally-sourced ingredients, like the 'Missy's Fix' dish (house-cured and braised corned beef, Swiss cheese, house-made apple slaw and thousand island dressing, on bread from Toledo's Wixey Bakery). The restaurant will be a more relaxed extension of Chef Joseph Jacobsen's carefully thought-out cuisine at Degage Jazz Cafe, and will take the place of Red Wells at the Historic Commercial Building.
