Today is finally Wednesday. It was the longest seeming Tuesday of all time and yet we are losing light at the rate of 2 - 3 minutes a day. I like to be optimistic and think about how we are so close to the shortest day of the year that spring is right around the corner. And what better way to help pretending but to hang out in this fine fall weather.
Today's lovely soup is Smoke Sausage & Beans Soup.
Special Sandwiches!
Grilled Eggplant Sandwich today replaces the Mushroom Sandwich. Same fine toppings with grilled eggplant replacing pan roasted mushrooms.
Pulled Pork Sandwiches are in!
The Flank Steak Sandwich today is in the Ol' School Style - green onion mayo, fig balsamic mustard, acidulated onions & local greens.

Diesel Trains, Port Lands, Snuffleupagus
Things that matter. There are many of them. All different to different people. This morning I took the time to learn how to spell Snuffleupagus. Which is not a word I have ever spelled before.
When is the last time you took the time to learn how to spell something strange (or fictional)?
Spell Check Galore!
Here's some special stuff from Hank's.
Soup today is a kick-butt Corn Chowder Soup with a chevre and roasted red pepper drizzle.
We are out of Mushroom Sandwiches but are happy to offer you Grilled Eggplant Sandwiches as a vegetarian option.
We have the Flank Steak Sandwich in Old School Styles (see yester-blog) and Pulled Pork Sandwiches as well.
Awesome Salads today include:
Albacore Tuna & Quelicum Beach Scallop Cakes with Bok Choy & Sesame Roasted Turnips (What?!?!)
Cumbrae's Chicken Salad
Ontario Fruit Salad
Minty Slaw
JK Tomato Salad with chevre
Hank will fill you with food and wonder.
See you soon,
Max

Happy Friday Everyone!
We're well on our way to a long weekend. I keep thinking it's this one (foolishly) but we're still getting there so I'm holding my head high.
This morning was a crazy toast morning in the cafe, it was dark out until much later and the air has a chill I have come to accept (grudgingly).
Here's what we've got to combat the Early October Grumbles (EOGs for short):
Smoked Turkey Soup.
If you know our soup - you know this one is great.
We still haven't got our Flank Steak a-go-go:
Hence, today's super meaty Sandwich Specials are
Pulled Pork Sandwich &
Peameal Bacon Sandwich (with tomato and lettuce, a very close call to BLT)
(both available in halves)
SALADS!
Grilled Lamb Pasta Salad
Cumbrae's Chicken Salad
Chorizo Sausage & Potato Salad
JK Tomato Salad
Niçoise Salad with Dijon Vinaigrette
Ontario Fruit Salad
See you soon,
Max

Happy Anniversay to the First World Series
Okay. I know, it's lame. But I struggle this early (yes, I work in cafe with lots of coffee and it still feels early) to come up with something creative for the blog. Something to distract you. Something to bring you away from you desk (in mind, then in body).
Did you know that today in 1903 the first game of the modern World Series was played between the Boston Americans and the Pittsburgh Pirates?
And in 1971 Walt Disney World opened in Florida.?
What a day.
(Segue...)
And what a day it is at Hank's.
Today's soup is a Coconut Vegetable Soup (Vegetarian Friendly).
We have Pulled Pork Sandwich on instead of the Flank Steak Sandwich and if you haven't had a chance to get back on the Mushroom Sandwich wagon you may as well. Everyone - all aboard the Mushroom Sandwich Wagon!
SaladSaladSalad!!
Grilled Lamb Pasta Salad (with roasted garlic and olives)
JK Tomato Salad
Niçoise Salad with Dijon Vinaigrette
Ontario Fruit Salad
Cumbrae's Chicken Salad
Purple Potato Salad with Dill & Bacon (I had one for breakfast.)
