It was a beautiful spring day and what better way to celebrate than to visit Char’d, a smoked meat shack serving some of the best BBQ and smoked meat sandwiches in the Kitchener/Waterloo area. The small drop-in facility is located on Victoria St. in Breslau, Ontario and has a small patio with an outdoor picnic area which we took advantage of on this sunny day.
What a fantastic meal! The two classically trained chefs know and appreciate good food and they have chosen to find their niche with smoked meat sandwiches, serving quality and unique food at a reasonable price. It was difficult to choose between smoked beef brisket or pork loin but I got a taste of both by opting for their feature of the day which was a Maple Bacon Grilled Cheese, with Smoked Brisket, Pork Loin, and four cheeses, served on Cobs Bread. The highlight of it all was the Wild Leek Aioli spread liberally on both slices of the bread, adding an extra hint of mild freshness and spark. To show you how dedicated these food-loving guys are, they hand-picked the wild leeks in a nearby forest and created this delicious spread in their own kitchen.
They served it with a side of rich and creamy Tomato Bisque. So delicious! I also added a side of yummy Yuca Fries served with their tasty coleslaw and dipping sauce. This place is special. They are open Tuesday to Saturday, 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. Go early. They may sell out for the day and you don’t want to miss this incredible food experience.
