Tasty Tom's on Whyte

Regular Ruben Sandwich



Blue Cheese and Bacon Burger!  




We went hear by accident, it was actually our third choice, sorry Tasty's. We tried "New York Bagel" but it was way too busy, then onto B's Dinner which didn't seem to be offering lunch, so we kept walking and stumbled upon Tasty Tom's. We had gone past it many times but never stopped to try it.

The place was warm and busy, another couple were waiting for a seat, so when the larger table in the corner became available we sat at either end together. It was our waitress' second day on the job and she was lovely. The service is "dinner" style, pretty relaxed and all about speed. 

The "benny special" for $12 was advertised everywhere but they were out of it. The menus is a simple breakfast all day, many interesting burgers and big sandwiches. 

My hubbie tried the blue cheese and bacon burger. What a great mix of ingredients! He enjoyed the burger and particularly the potato fries on the side. 

I had the Ruben as a friend of mine is currently on a hunt for the best Ruben sandwich in Australia, so I felt I had to support the cause. The Ruben was delicious, I paid an extra $2 for the salad on the side, and asked for no dressing, so don't hold that against them in the photo. It was so delicious and filling, the meat was juicy and the I was worried the sandwich was going to be soggy, but it wasn't!
