| - We stopped in for a sandwich one day and were so amazed at how good it was we had returned three days in a row. The sandwiches are well thought through providing a delicious experience.
The Menu:
The pulled pork sandwich is very unique, big mouthfuls of high quality pork, tender and juicy, with only a light coating of a honey mustard bbq sauce.
The seafood po boy was our favourite, sweet firm shrimp just barely cooked, and some tender calamari, both dusted with paprika. Lots of fragrant cilantro, crunchy coleslaw and a beautiful sweet pepper relish added in light amounts, drizzled with avocado sauce.
The prosciutto sandwich had fresh creamy buffalo cheese, arugla, roasted sweet peppers and drizzled with olive oil. This pairs beautifully with their lemongrass soda.
In each instance the bread for the sandwiches is paired nicely, the texture holding up to the contents without overwhelming the flavour of the fillings.
Fries: We must admit we are not fans of the fries as a matter of personal taste. They're cooked well and a good quality of potato is used, but they are heavily seasoned and too salty for our palates.
The Spot:
It's located on Bloor street amongst a bunch of other little shops and coffee shops. Like all the food options in this area, expect very limited seating. There are two small tables and then a counter with a few seats. Take out is a good option, or eat there and make room for someone else to sit down - definitely not a place you can politely linger while chatting away with friends unless it's during their slower hours.
The Service:
Everything is made fresh to order so if you show up too soon after opening some things may not be ready - like sauces for the po boy for example. They are always eager to provide sincere and thoughtful suggestions and seem to be really invested in people taking pleasure in their food. The staff is always friendly, and food usually takes about 10 minutes to prepare.
