Transcontinental

[ozonemania]

The space is smack in the middle of a transit hub, I don't think a sit-down restaurant or a Family-style restaurant would do that well. Don't really want to see a food fair there either as there are a few within a few blocks.

What I'd like to see and think would do well there is a good, I mean real good, jewish deli. You know, bowls of kosher pickles, hefty helpings of tasty easy to eat deli food. Steaming piles of Montreal smoked meat or pastrami, chopped liver pate, on a good hearty rye bread. Schnizels, salmon lox, matzo balls, goulash, latke pancakes.... jeez I miss that food here.

There's a couple of delis in Manhatten I miss alot, and I remember having a killer meatball deli sandwich in Chicago. Dang, I'm drooling.

Great type of food for the business lunch crowd. I know there are some solid 'deli-style' cafes in Gastown and Yaletown, but they're not really what I'm thinking about.

Actually come to think of it, doesn't really need to be at the Transcontinental location. Just open one somewhere!
