| - The European style butchers that once inhabited every second corner in Toronto are a vanishing breed, but fortunately for those seeking Hungarian delicacies, there remains the Blue Danube Sausage House.
This is old school - there is the meat counter where you can choose from an assortment of charcuterie, the freezer section where you can pick up prepared goods, the dessert counter where you can satisfy your sweet tooth, the rack of fresh breads, a small hot table where you can fill the hole with that delicious schnitzel sandwich, and the dry goods selection where you can fill out your dinner needs.
Everybody has an opinion on the best Czabi sausages, but these have to be included in the discussion. Ditto for the head cheese, the meatloaf, the pogaca (okay, that's bread, but it has bacon in it!) and just about everything else there. The freezer is stocked with the essentials - leczo, goulash, soups, and of course, paprika. The dobos torte is awesome, and so is the kremes, in fact, so are all the goodies in the dessert section. And the caraway rye is definitely one of the best in Toronto.
I am happy that this place is still around to provide the high quality and harder to find Hungarian goods I am so happy with.
Jo etvagyat!
