Address: 380 Kerr St, Oakville ON
Website: n/a
Style: Polish
Price: $-$$
So my mom swears that she never noticed this small Polish deli on Kerr st (in the Kerr Village shopping strip), but I have a feeling that it's been there a lot longer than she thinks -- though she did let me know that the Venezuelan place across the street is gone and a (another??) high-end patisserie is slotted to open in its place. The signs in the windows advertising pierogies and cabbage rolls just look like I've seen this place before, although I'm hardly ever here.
Despite having poppy seed buns, my mom got me the poppy seed loaf ($2.50, sold as half a loaf) which looked unique and filled with poppy seeds. And it was! I'd call it a mix between sweet challah bread and a traditional poppy seed roll (makowiec) The dough was very light and airy while the poppy seed mass was delicious; team that up with the bit of crumble and icing on top -- delicious! And it does need to be said: having it nice and fresh really helped.
This place was actually a little bit of a surprise -- I certainly didn't expect to find homemade baked goods at such a small place... and I certainly didn't anticipate both things sampled being so good! :P
