The namesake ladies behind Two Cooks on Main are two of the sweetest in the business!

Combined with the fresh ingredients and traditional recipes, it’s one of my new favorite restaurants. Walking in, you experience the authenticity of a real Mom and Pop soup and sandwich shop—featured menu items are handwritten on a chalkboard above the counter where homemade pastries beckon you to try them. My mother and I stopped in for lunch recently and, although Thanksgiving was long gone, I ordered the Cranberry Turkey Sandwich to reminisce about my favorite holiday. The cranberries were tart and sweet, the turkey moist and unprocessed, and the bread fresh and soft. It was a wonderful Thanksgiving reunion for my taste buds! Mom ordered a bowl of Clam Chowder, which was thick and full of hearty ingredients. What’s more, the service was quick and the food well priced. Two Cooks on Main is a sweet little restaurant that leaves a lasting, delicious, impression. Two Cooks on Main, 374 Main Street, Placerville, 530-626-6546.
