| - THE SMOKED MEAT IS EXCELLENT.
^^Read this to yourself three times, then please, continue.
THE SHORT
The flavour of my sandwich was surprisingly good.
I mean, it was OFF THE CHARTS.
^^Yes, the caps are necessary; No hyperbole here.
I was truly shocked at how good it was, and I am a Katz's guy.
THE REST
I found the meat in my sandwich a little too peppered.
Since I've only been there once, I can't say if it's the standard or just a case of a peppery cut.
The kishke dish was a welcome sight on the menu, and was consumed in a hurry. Next time I will order a double portion (You only get three pieces, I was thinking 4 for the price).
I found the meat to be a little too peppery, but that is my own bias.
But again, the flavour! It was just great.
The prices are good for what you get, and everyone at my table was happy with what they got.
We were there on Thanksgiving Day, and got there right in time - A giant line had formed in our wake. My sandwich was forgotten, but when our server checked up and realized the error, I got one in a hurry. It was OK by me since what I was brought was piping hot.
I'm also glad to see hand cutting of the meat. It really does make a difference in the sandwich. I've eaten at two top delis in NYC - on the same day, lunch and dinner - and I could tell the difference.
It was good to see Zane working the holiday like his staff, and he was more than happy to bring around a sample of tongue to our table when my friend asked if had any. And the tongue was
FAN-TASTIC. If they have it when you are in, try it.
Tell yourself it's caviar if you have to.
The service was uneven, but the food was bang on.
Better than the other way around, no?
You need to go to Caplansky 's a.s.a.p.
This place is a gem and Toronto should count itself lucky to have it.
Also, thanks to Zane for bringing back Jewish deli to Toronto.
