Interesting to note that the very first blurb they wrote was about Umbrella Burger!

How much are they now?
Even before inflation I was astounded at how little DiRienzos would charge for them… I’m assuming they must be up to $8 or $9.
Great little deli.

I went a few weeks ago and I think with tax it's $10 but I will usually buy a drink too.
You do end up with a sore jaw afterwards though. Also, the bread isn't fresh on Saturdays.

Bonita tacos in the east end. Very good stuff and amazing homemade sauces. I never had birria tacos before, and glad I tried them, but not sure I would get them again. Overall I would go back.
Turkish House on Bank Street, near South Keys. I can go every week, super tasty and the coal fire taste was amazing. Just an unbelievable value as well. And their cold baklava was a revelation. This is a 10/10 place for me and will be back!

Oh I did, licked that plate dry. And the bulgur, which is something I don't eat, was a showstopper compared to the Afghan or Persian versions I have had which have rice instead

Not necessarily the best ribs in town but the special on Thursdays at Fitz smokehouse and grill - half rack of ribs and fries for $12.99 is solid.

Also - personally think Robertos may be the best deli sandwich shop in the city, the best bread handsdown, great price, great quality. They rarely charge for extra meat and cheese if your a regular.

For $8 these black label Presidents Choice pizzas are an excellent option - the pepperoni is fantastic and kinda Portnoy-esque - no flop.
No Frills is constantly sold out of just specifically the pep version fwiw

A plug for Dao bakery/cafe on merivale. It’s in the worst strip mall, but they have the best pastries and some of the best coffee. I see lots of people on dates there and it’s always jammed. My kids do martial arts at like 8:00 pm on Wednesday’s and I’ll pop in to the place being packed.
Only caveat besides the parking lot is that it’s pricey. Definitely a guilty pleasure once in a while or “impress a girl” kinda spot. Not your daily cuppa.

Have been enjoying Sushi-Ro's lunch bentos lately - they're worth a try.
Went to Stolen Goods last weekend for the first time. HOLY SHIT. It was delicious. 10/10 recommend for fancy cocktails and bites. Sitting at the Bar is very worthwhile, the two owners are awesome
