Sandwiches

[Brownie]

You won't find a better sandwich than the ones they make in Canada. Every sandwich made in Canada is superior to every sandwich ever made in the States.

That said, I don't think eating at Kurt Evans' favorite sandwich shoppe would suck. Toronto is no culinary desert.

Damn it TJ, I know this.

Mostly I'm not super impressed with Toronto food.  There are some classic standbys that I'll eat at every chance I get, but I can think of lots of places I'd rather go if I had the chance.  I used to love a BBQ joint here that, at one point, was even better than Fork's beloved Dinosaur, but they've lost a few steps quality-wise.  There are a few thai restaurants I enjoy quite a bit, but I'm sure you could convince me that Chicago -- or any other city in America -- has choices as good or better.  Our Mexican food pretty much sucks.  But as far as deli goes, Caplansky's has earned a very solid reputation not just in Canada but in the States as well (attracting the attention of foodies like Ruth Reichl), and they deserve every accolade they get.

I wouldn't say that everybody in the world would love Caplansky's smoked meat over Katz's pastrami, because they're two very different things with two very different flavors.  All I can say is I've tried both and fortunately prefer the local deli to the one I'd have to travel hours to eat at.

Goes without saying.

Oh dip.

Oh dip.

I tried to tell you this yesterday, but did you listen?

I think the answer is clearly, "No."

I had the grilled flank steak sandwich on ciabatta with gorgonzola sauce at Old Oak Tap (on Chicago, 2 blocks west of damen) on Saturday. Unreal sandwich. Delirium on tap. Boo yah.

[Fork]

Holy Christ, bump.

Anybody ever eat at Grandaddy's, on the near South Side, a little west of UIC?  I wanna say near Western and Roosevelt, but it's been about 8 years since I ate there.

According to yelp, it's still there, although I found the reviews to be surprisngly lukewarm.  I remember they had a massive sub for like 11 bucks that would rock your colon with a boatload of meat.

I enjoyed your sincere response to TDubbs' faggy reply.

I enjoyed your faggyness.

Huey, I still don't get why you brought up this place.  You asked if anybody had eaten there, then didn't remember where it was at exactly b/c you haven't been there since a white man was president.  Then you "remembered" that they had a sub that was a certain dollar amount, but you can't "remember" that dollar amount.
