Bistro Pain et Fromage, a Fort Wayne favorite, is served exclusively at Bistro Nota. The sliced, toasted house-made rosemary-and-sea-salt focaccia highlights the owner-chefs’ baking expertise. Beside it comes a distinctive house “secret” roasted pepper cheese dip from Chef‑Owner Cam Kaminski — originally developed with peppers Cam grew himself, giving the dip a uniquely personal flavor.
