I went straight to the takeout corner to request a smoke meat sandwich. It did take some time before getting the order though. Paid right there too which is concerning as they are handling food and money? (There was a separate cashier next to the entrance)
Old fashioned med fat smoked meat sandwich $9.75
This was pretty good. There is a good amount of meat that is not too salty. The sandwich was soft, moist and creamy. The bread was soft but on the small side so it was hard to get a grip on all that meat. The meat was also concentrated at the center of the sandwich which also made it difficult to properly hold and eat. Ordering medium fat, it was not too greasy or overpowering. I noticed that it made for a softer and creamier taste.
Potato latke w/ sour cream $3.75
Looked tasty behind the food case however I don't think it tasted as good as I thought. It was a potato cake with onion and flour and right away, there's this distinct aroma I didn't like. The texture was smooth (not mushy like a potato but more like a fish cake) and it was dense too. The outside was a little crispy but Since they are reheated I'm sure if it were made fresh it could be crispier; or it could also be because the mixture itself that doesn't get as crispy compared to fried hash. The sour cream cut through the grease but didn't really improve the taste for me.
