Fingers Crossed's Grilled Cheese

Tastemaker

By Anna Faller | Oct. 26, 2024

Comfort food meets worldly flavors in Fingers Crossed Northport’s new fall menu (gochujang wings, anyone?), and we can’t think of a more perfect pairing than the Leelanau Raclette Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup ($15). An elevated riff on the classic combo, this nourishing plate pairs a buttery, white toast sandwich—stuffed with a blend of American, white cheddar, and Leelanau Cheese raclette cheeses—with scratch tomato soup (ingredients: house-preserved and canned Roma tomatoes, garlic, onions, and stock) finished with chef John Kehl’s top-secret seasoning blend. The soup is garnished with even more melty raclette, house-made croutons, and fresh dill, and that sammie was just made for dunking. (Promise we won’t tell if you lick the bowl!)
