| - "Grumans... What is this place that people keep posting about?" I scratched my head last spring after seeing a couple of reviews and checkins and wondered why I hadn't seen it sooner. When I went in search of it, I understood why. It's a bit out of the way in the same building as tourism Calgary and if you don't know to be on the lookout for it, it's likely you'll miss it. But it's there! Open for breakfast, second breakfast, elevensies, lunch, and afternoon tea. Don't get any ideas about filling up for your 6pm dinner or 9pm supper though... These doors close at 330pm weekdays.
Now that the weather is turning a bit more nipply, (no, not a typo ;) )' may I suggest you start with a bowl of Matzoe ball soup - light broth, with a dumpling made from bread turned into crackers then rolled all up together. Hope you're bringing your appetite because if you follow up with a sandwich, you might be carrying half your meal out the door to save for your next hobbit meal. If that's the case, you should get the Grumans Grilled Special. It's my favourite, though the Reuben is sure to please and these folks might know a thing or two about making a Montreal smoked meat sammy.
If you want a new breakfast place to try, Grumans does that too! And don't worry about waking up early... It goes all day on Saturdays and Sundays. On my list to try is the Challah French Toast and Lox Benedict.
Oh, did I mention Grumans also does catering? Yep... You can spread the love for The drool-worthy goodness coming from this delicatessen at your next meeting or event.
Enjoy!
