| - This place is a little gem amongst the high-rolling restaurants around the Yonge and Eglington area. It's a little north of the main intersection, but well worth the trek. The place was nice a cozy, but still polished and uncluttered. To be perfectly honest, I was not expecting much of the food there, but my dinning companion didn't want to walk anymore to find a different place. I was intrigued by the daily special, a cubano sandiwch. Let's say I was pleasantly surprised that we stopped at Cam's place for a quick meal.
The cubano was full of juicy and tender roast pork, plenty of pickles (and more on the side too!) and lots of melted swiss cheese. The sandwich was so huge, I had half of it for dinner the next day. Being the holiday season, I decided to indulge and go for the fries, which ended up being a wise choice. They were slightly thicker than shoe-string sized and very crisp. I tried some of the caesar salad that came with my friend's meal and it was your run of the mill, trusty caesar. It was nothing to write home about (but I guess I'm doing that here), but sometimes you just need romaine lettuce covered in creamy dressing with bacon (real bacon too!) and croutons.
If I'm ever in that area of town again, I would definitely drop into Cam's. They have specials each day, including what looked like a delicious fish and chips dinner. From the quality of the chips, I would think the fish would be wonderful too.
