California Sandwiches.

veal sandwich!... My friend Chris has been telling me about this place that serves a crazy good veal sandwiches called California Sandwiches, so I had to check it out.  They have a few locations around Toronto, and I went last Saturday to the Dufferin location.  They have a pretty basic menu of different kinds of sandwiches including Chicken, Steak, Meatball, Eggplant, Sausage, Veggie and of course Veal!  I was there around lunch time and there was quite a long line up of people, who pretty much all seemed to order the Veal sandwich, which come in either sweet or mild or hot. 

The sandwich itself is pretty expensive for $8.25 + tax getting you only the basic veal sandwich on a bun, but it is soooo tasty!  Once you've paid that much for this sandwich, you still have to pay a bit for the toppings. I got mushrooms ($1.07 + tax), sweet peppers ($1.07 + tax) and cheese ($1.07 + tax), which puts the sandwich over the $10 mark, but once you open it up from the wrapper and taste it you will be satisfied. The bun is super fluffy and and theres 2 giant pieces of deep fried veal in sauce- with each bite being an interesting blend of moist and crispy, it's the best veal sandwich I've had in Toronto. Also, one sandwich is quite a bit for 1 person.  You can tell that people love this place by the busy line ups.  They also serve some hot food like meatballs, which looked like pretty large portions.  They also have locations a Warden/ Eglington and Yonge/ Elgin Mills. Check out there other locations here. There was free parking at the Dufferin location, but even parking seemed a bit busy. It's open till 10 pm everyday and 8 pm on sundays. It is an expensive sandwich, but definitely worth trying one of these sandwiches (kinda like Burger's Priest that it's expensive but so goood!).
