"7"^^ . "8"^^ . "Admittedly, before last week, I had never eaten anything from any location of this famed Toronto Delicatessen. I have my spots for authentic deli cuisine and was all set. After being disappointed with my smoked meat sandwich at their departure location in Terminal 1 when my flight was cancelled I was a little hesitant when our dinner options were limited to Tim Hortons and the full 'sit-down' Caplansky's in T3 of Pearson.\n\nI've always said that I'm about second chances and for the most part that's true (save for a few abominations that shall remain nameless), but I gotta tell you, in this instance I'm glad I was forced to give CD's another whirl.\n\nHaving some time to kill before our flight we decided to get some food and drink and I agonized about what to have knowing I didn't want another smoked meat sandwich. I noticed a small \"YGEH\" next to a few menu items and asked what the 'buzz wuz' on these. Our server informed me that those items were the ones featured on \"You Gotta Eat Here\". Well then - that's a different story!\n\nAfter looking over my options I handily went with the homemade meat loaf option paired with mash and veggies. Good old fashioned comfort food that sticks to your ribs and makes you sleepy for a flight. \n\nThe veggies were nothing special, just a steamed assortment it seemed, similar to what my fiancee received in her veggie sandwich - not exactly original. The mashed taters were light and nicely whipped but spuds all the same. The meatloaf was the real winner here IMO. Soft and moist, not even a little bit dry, meaty (obviously), well seasoned, and a MASSIVE portion, I was stuffed by the end, and nicely topped with a sweet tomato sauce - definitely NOT ketchup!\n\nDefinitely a much better experience vs the take away option in T1 of the airport. I'd definitely eat here again!\n\nEatcrest Out!"^^ . "2016-04-22T00:00:00"^^ . . . . "1"^^ . "4"^^ .
