Fat Friday - Caplansky's


This week for our Fat Friday dinner, we took Diane to Caplansky's Delicatessen at College & Spadina, famous for their smoked meat sandwiches. And that is exactly what we all ordered: 3 Smoked Meat sandwiches on Rye, 2 orders of fries, 1 order of coleslaw, and 3 Black Cherry Colas. Isn't your mouth watering just looking at the picture?!?! (Matt had to remind me to take a photo for the blog... I was just too hungry and dug right in. That's why there is only half a sandwich, but don't worry, you get a full one with your order.)


Each sandwich comes with their own basket of fries, but we took the recommendation of the waitress and split the two baskets between the three of us, and we were plenty full. But still the waitress tried to sell us on dessert, (which sounded delicious on the menu board before we ate...) but we had better things in mind for an after dinner treat.

We justified the decadent dinner with the more than 9 km walk to the Bata Shoe Musuem on Bloor st, then to Caplansky's on College, and then over to Younge/Dundas to watch The Fantastic Mr. Fox. If you haven't seen the trailer for this movie yet, get thee to a computer to watch it, because it is a really fantastic movie. The stop animation is awesome, and this movie is not just for kids. But I will warn you, there were also some fantastically AWFUL trailers beforehand (I love me some movie trailers, so I was especially disappointed that they sucked!), so there is no harm in showing up late to miss those. But you may have troubles finding a seat.

And, as mentioned, our after dinner treat consisted of movie popcorn for Matt (he never passes up popcorn at a movie, but he did settle for just a small - a first!), Junior Mints for me (I was going for a more refreshing snack after the salty sandwich), and we shared an Icee (blue, of course). A pretty good Fat Friday, all in all...
