Mini-Review: Salty Tongue Urban Deli

Submitted by Roland on Tue, 11/23/2004 - 23:52

The Salty Tongue (213 Carrall Street, 604 915-7258) is one of the growing number of Gastown businesses started by the cool people who are responsible for the Irish Heather, the Shebeen, etc.

It's a deli and a restaurant and a coffee shop all in one open from 11a.m.-6p.m..  A beautiful, relaxing, casual space chock 'o block with gourmet goodies, cheese, gourmet canned goods and lots of other stuff.  And with a few tables to sit downstairs as well as a big table upstairs.

The Salty Tongue  serves great lunch specials such as a soup and sandwich combo for about $8.  The food is tasty and flavourful cooked up by the some of the same people who cook at the Irish Heather.

Here's a picture of a recent lunch.

Panini (excellent!) and Wild Mushroom Soup:
