Food Friday: Just Baked Bakery and Deli

A few weeks ago we were looking for something different to enjoy for lunch. I was on Mustang Road south of I-40, stopped at the light for Reno. I looked over and saw the sign for Just Baked Bakery and Deli. I have been wanting to try this place for a while, so I turned in to check them out.

For a Saturday afternoon, it was pretty quiet. The first thing you are hit with is the huge case with all of their fresh baked desserts. It was hard to concentrate on the actual menu with all of these delightful baked goods right in your face. Big K got a Bricktown sandwich with a side of mac & cheese while I went with The Okie along with a side of potato salad. We took a seat and it didn’t take long at all for us to get our food. The Bricktown was a cold sandwich with ham, salami, pepperoni, and provolone with lots of fresh veggies on a hoagie roll. Big K loved every bite. He even had positive things to say about the mac & cheese, it was nice and creamy with perfectly cooked pasta. I went with a warm sandwich, toasted sourdough with ham, cheddar, bacon, along with grilled onion, spinach, and honey mustard. I loved it. Perfectly toasted, all of the ingredients just coming together to make a great sandwich. I also loved the potato salad, it was fresh with a great taste.

We were both stuffed when done but still couldn’t leave without some of those treats coming home with us. After careful consideration, I got a slice of carrot cake while Big K got a slice of peanut butter silk pie. I will say that the sweet treats did make it home but not for long. That carrot cake was calling to me and I enjoyed every bite. The cake was so moist and that wonderful cream cheese buttercream was to die for. Big K liked his peanut butter silk pie, it was smooth.

Overall we had a great visit to Just Baked Bakery and Deli. I am ready to visit again. The have a pretty big menu for breakfast and lunch. They even have coffee and that dessert case really is huge. I’ll give them five strips of bacon.

Food Friday: Krell’s East Coast Style Delicatessen

I’ve only been to the east coast of the United States a few times and never north of Maryland, so I’ve never really been to a true delicatessen. I’m going to take the advice of others when they tell me that the recently opened Krell’s Deli is pretty much what they’re like.

Opened just in March of this year, I’ve already been twice and looking forward to more trips. On my first trip I got the egg salad sandwich, it was really good. I was a bit thrown off by the lettuce and tomato on it but loved the wheat berry bread. Big K had the pastrami special, it looked so good I knew I had to try it next. That’s what I had on my second visit, so much hot pastrami piled on to the bread with Swiss cheese and cole slaw. The flavors just melded together to make a really good sandwich plus it was so big I couldn’t finish the fries that we were sharing.

I love the service there as well, after you order and find a place to sit, someone is at your table bringing some homemade pickles and peppers. These are so good, I don’t normally like bread and butter pickles but theirs are great. You also don’t wait long for your food, every time I have visited there is a full crew in back working on sandwiches. I have also gotten the fries as a side, these are huge steak fries that have been cooked perfectly. I have been so full when leaving that I haven’t had a chance to try their desserts but those lemon bars keep calling, I’m going to get some to go next trip.

Easy to find their location, on Yukon Parkway in the strip mall just south of the high school. I highly recommend them, maybe I’ll even see you there. 5 strips of bacon with a side of pickles.
