Swedish Limpa Rye Bread
"You can eat at home or you can eat at Ann Sather's," says owner Tom Tunney. Since 1945* this institution--first owned by Ann Sather herself, and now Tunney and family--has served Swedish-American breads, soups, cabbage rolls and stews at affordable prices. The restaurants' old-fashioned hospitality is as beloved as the cooking. Immigrant Swedes have long since moved away or assimilated, but the tradition continues, attracting a diversity of locals. Here is a recipe from the 50th anniversary cookbook. *The original Belmont location dates back earlier as the Swedish Diner, prior to Sather's purchase.
