Sunday night, I headed to the Adelaide and King St area for dinner. In this corporate environment, Café Landwer has done a good job of evoking an old Jewish deli with its dining tables and tchotchkes. The menu also offered more than the typical Eastern European dishes; there were also some Middle-East fares, and even pasta and pizza.
I ordered a 1/2 smoked salmon sandwich ($10), some market roasted cauliflower ($9) and a carrot cake slice ($5.75) for dessert. All were reasonably tasty, not particular outstanding, but felt homey and unprepossessing. Given the lack of affordable delis in Toronto, even Caplansky has disappeared from College after a rental dispute and mismanagement, and only upscale spots like Fat Pasha hanging around, Landwer is a good spot for a simple meal.
