While strolling through the St. Lawrence Market, we were dead-set on sampling something that Toronto was truly known for. We were referred to the "Famous Peameal Bacon Sandwich" from the Carousel Bakery.
The "Country-Style Bun" was your standard bulky sandwich roll, but its quality was pretty irrelevant. The specialty cut of bacon was the true star of the dish. It might have been a bit greasy, but the thickly-sliced meat remained lean, tender, and packed with flavor. The sandwich was even more enjoyable when topped with mustard and hot peppers.
Even though I have just finished my lunch, my mouth is watering at the memory of this succulent sandwich. I rarely indulge in fatty lunches like this, but when in Rome...or, rather, Toronto!
