Belsito's Deli 305 Plantation St (Oct 10)

Overall impression:  Good deli sandwiches to go if you are in the neighborhood.

The guys at Belsito's seemed to be having a somewhat comically bad day when we were there. No hot sandwiches were on offer because of a big catering job, which seemed a bit stressful. So we ordered a veggie and a ham and cheese... and they accidentally sent my veggie out the door with another customer. Oops. (The guy making mine carried it up to the register with him when he went to ring someone else out, and it got lost in the sandwich-shuffle).

Everything turned out fine though. We got our food and took it to Lake Park. It was such a beautiful fall day, perfect for watching rowers and dog-walkers while having a picnic. We both liked our sandwiches. They weren't anything I'd go out of my way to drive for (although maybe meat eaters feel that way about meatballs or steak-involved sandwiches, but Eric didn't get the chance  to be able to comment on that). If you are in the neighborhood, go for it. Unfortunately Plantation St. has been torn up and under construction for what seems like forever, so I hope it didn't affect their business.

If you go, bring cash. They don't accept cards, but do have an ATM machine with an incredibly high fee. Otherwise, just go hungry. I still have half of my meal in my refrigerator a day later.
