A few months ago, when we first told you about Hiram and Angela Silvaโs new Silvaโs Coffee Grind (located in front of One-Stop Landscape Supply on S.R. 54, a little west of Morris Bridge Rd.), Hiram had told us that he was planning to expand his menu, based on his own creativity, as well as on customer requests.
โIโve always loved to cook,โ Hiram says. โIโm just having fun with this menu. Obviously, our kitchen inside the trailer isnโt big, so Iโm a little limited, but Iโve already added a couple of new items.โ
Hiram says his favorite new item is the egg white triple stack pesto delight (left photo). It offers at least two eggs worth of egg whites, plus juicy turkey, Swiss cheese, fresh green leaf lettuce and Angelaโs homemade mayo-pesto spread โ and you also can add crispy bacon to it for just $2 more.ย
My personal favorite new item, however, is the Boarโs Head pastrami & Swiss topped with sauerkraut, pickles and Thousand Island dressing. I had it the way itโs shown here (below right), on three slices of rye toast, but I definitely plan to try it on a sesame or everything bagel next time. It comes with a free bag of chips, too.ย
As I mentioned in my first โNibbles & Bytesโ item about Silvaโs back in October, I definitely felt close to these fellow New Yawkas from the get-go, especially because it was obvious how much care Hiram puts into his food. His fried egg, bacon and American (or Swiss) cheese breakfast โsammieโ on a toasted sesame bagel definitely reminds me of home. And yes, Hiram is happy to make your egg sandwich with scrambled eggs or even egg whites and put it on a fresh croissant (Jannahโs favorite).
In addition to the pastrami, Iโm also partial to Silvaโs turkey pesto BLT and tuna salad sandwiches (the tuna comes with a bag of chips, too).
And, even though Iโm mainly a coffee guy โ and Silvaโs has delicious brewed coffee (available with flavor shots, like vanilla or caramel) โ there also are espresso drinks like hot or iced cappuccinos, lattes, mochas and cafe con leches, hot chocolate, a variety of hot or iced teas, lemonade and smoothies made with real fruit purรฉe, creamy smoothies like toasted marshmallow, lavender and pumpkin spice, as well as vanilla, caramel, double mocha or green tea matcha drinks. Mango or strawberry bursting bobas also can be added to your cold beverage or smoothie. Thereโs even handmade fruit sorbets.
But, the one item I havenโt tried yet that I promise I will sample on my next visit is an espresso affogato, which is two scoops of vanilla ice cream with a double shot of espresso poured over it, whipped cream, chocolate syrup and a sprinkle of cookie crumble. Is it a drink? Is it a dessert? YES!
You also can order a dozen or half-dozen of Silvaโs real NY bagels (below) that will be ready for pick-up in 2-3 days. I promise theyโre legit โ and so are their Silvaโs Coffee Grind gift cards!
