Verona Convenience

Anil Velji

Anil Velji of the Verona Convenience store, makes two kinds of sandwiches, a BLT and a “full breakfast,” which has a fried egg as well. They are wrapped and stacked on the counter, but they don’t last long. The sandwiches start with a thin layer of mayo, followed by a fried egg, bacon, lettuce and tomato, with a dusting of pepper. Add this to hot, fresh coffee and a genuine, warm greeting, making Verona Convenience a popular stop for commuters and locals alike.

Lavalee's Cookery

Pam Raby

One of the secrets to this sandwich is the bagel, which is fashioned out of light, crispy French bread. Inside the sandwich has peameal bacon, egg, crispy lettuce and tomato, Canadian cheddar, and a thin layer of spicy mayo. Served with hot coffee in front of a tempting pastry display that includes cream filled eclairs. The Cookery is open from 6:30am to 7:30pm weekdays, and features store-made grab and go options, made with seasonal local ingredients, all served in a bright, sunny atmosphere.
