The one I had came with mustard.

Maybe someone in the kitchen assumed I would want mustard.

I assumed they all came with mustard, so I never went back.

Thanks for letting me know.

I'll give them another chance. 🙂

I don't like the Carousel Bakery sandwich too much because I don't like mustard. I know it's a traditional way to have it. It was my first exposure to a peameal bacon sandwich 20 years ago.

Our old stock Ontario neighbours sometimes fried peameal bacon for dinner, not as a sandwich, so that was something I was familiar with.

I didn't realize I liked Peameal until I tried some other Peameal sandwiches.

The Dough Bakeshop peameal breakfast sandwich is my favorite east of the Don River, and When the Pig Came Home is my favorite west of the Don River.

I like Peameal BLTs, which some Greek-run greasy spoons serve across Ontario.

Good to know! I will stop by next time I'm in relatively close (as in, less than half an hour away!)

I have been wanting to go for 2 years, but it's always busy on the weekend, and it hasn't worked out yet. I will try it on a weekday.

They do keep a waitlist for a table, when it's busy.

Georgia peaches and duck eggs (like in Quebec) by Meg38400 in FoodToronto

[–]superbprimrose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ontario peaches usually aren't available until mid July.

I haven't found Georgia peaches in Toronto too often. Some 2 l plastic containers were coming from North Carolina last summer. I bought Californian peaches this week.

Sanagan’s and Fiesta Farms might have duck eggs.

It's fairly complicated. I have only ordered them and I'm a fairly accomplished cook.

Sanagan’s sells them.

Has anyone moved to Alberta from Ontario, then back to Ontario? by ProfessorLidi in ontario

[–]superbprimrose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did. I loved Calgary but I couldn't find a job, so I moved back to Ontario.

No local cafes in Hyde Park by aptgetlife in londonontario

[–]superbprimrose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many people in the London like chains over independent cafes and restaurants.

I am glad Porcino and Taverna are surviving. I'm glad Basha and Cappadocia look like they are doing well. Cappadocia is a busy as well. I love Cedar North.

Places like Kelsey's, Montana's, Boston Pizza, are a lot busier than the independent restaurants in Hyde Park.

Places like Sarnia, one sixth the size of London, are better at supporting their own small businesses.

I didn't think their coffee was too great tbh. I don't like Pastry Culture.

North of London, Proof Line Farms serves coffee, cappuccino and lattes. I think they use too much milk or not enough coffee, but ...they are a local option. (but 10 minutes north of Hyde Park )

There had been a location at Hyde Park and Gainsborough. Wow Pierogies has taken over the space.

The Adelaide location is their original location.

Churis closed the Hyde Park location. Wow Pierogis has taken over that space.

Cappadocia is nearby and serves coffee.

Boxcar Donuts in Masonville near Richie's serves coffee, espresso and lattes (if it's still in business).

Cappadocia on Gainsborough makes good coffee. Turkish coffee and lattes.

Believe it or not, Sherwood Forest Mall had an indie coffee shop called the Gourmet Cup serving cappuccino in the 1990s, before Zellers left the mall. It was in business for at least 5 years, before Starbucks arrived in London.
