Smoked Meat Sandwich
A standout smoked meat sandwich, celebrated for its tender, flavorful meat that isn't overly fatty or greasy.
"Got the regular size smoked meat sandwich and it was super tasty and went well with the mustard. I appreciated the meat wasn't too fatty and it didn't feel too greasy after as I felt good enough to go to the gym right after."

Oxtail Patty
A surprisingly delicious patty that impresses even those who wouldn't typically choose oxtail, especially when paired with cheese.
"Also wanted to try a patty, but there were all out except for the oxtail one... And I'm happy that was the case as I usually wouldn't have tried it but was blown away how tasty it was and it worked so well with the cheese!"
