Lionette's Market is the Market for The Garden of Eden restaurant (which is located close to Lionette's). They have a full service deli with prepared salads, vegetables, meats and select entrees. They stock a small amount of fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as gourmet dry and canned foods. They have a great selection of natural, as well as foreign brands- and both look amazing! The tiny market is "airplane-free", a new concept of eco-ethical trade to us. All of the young cheeses are from New England. The only European cheeses are old enough to ride on a boat. Preserved items are all locally made. He knows his 100 purveyors by first name. But it's immediately obvious that Jamey's true love is meat. A chalkboard at the door advertises "Today's Fats", including house-rendered Lard, Duck Fat, and Vegetable Shortening. Jamey buys a half cow a week and a whole pig, grass-fed from Vermont. He makes all his own sausage and cures the bacon and steams the ham and takes up 1/3 of his deli counter to proudly display the side of bacon. Though small, Lionette's Market is definitly worth a visit! You are guaranteed to find something yummy to put in your tummy!

You know that you are at Eagle's deli when you look at the menu and the smallest burger weighs in at 1 lb. Challenge your stomach to a battle of fries, cheese, and meat with burgers weighing up to 3 lbs. I wonder who will win?

Well known and loved for its no frills, cafeteria-style dining and delicious array of sandwiches and hot entrees, Jim's Deli & Restaurant on Washington Street in Brighton is a legend among local diners who seek neighborhood comfort food. In fact, Jim's Deli & Restaurant has been featured on Phantom Gourmet and Sunday's with Liz Walker as a "hidden jewel" known for its "no frills, no fuss, no problem" appeal. The menu is vast and the portions enormous: come hungry and bring friends to best enjoy the convivial, home-grown atmosphere that truly earns this establishment its beloved reputation. On weekends, come early to avoid the late breakfast rush. At 10 a.m., the line gets long and the seating is scarce, but the food is worth the (surprisingly quick) brunch-hour wait times. The enormous menu covers not only all breakfast foods (including mouth watering omelettes, $5.95), but also many types of sandwiches (all large and fresh and priced near $7 with fries)and plates of pasta and vegetable options. It's not fancy and it's not a linger-and-soak-in-the-ambience type of place, but that's the point. And that's why it's great. Click here the lowdown from Phantom Gourmet on Jim's Deli & Restaurant and here for the complete menu. During weekdays, Jim's Deli & Restaurant offers fast, free delivery Mon-Fri 11:30am-8:30pm.

Max's is great! It's a New York style deli with great food and friendly people. Even though Michael is very grouchy looking he's a businessman getting the job done. The Osso Bucco (veal stew and mashed potato) is my favorite when I'm really hungry.

Peter's Deli has counter service offering sandwiches, salads and a number of daily specials. Pete's is freakin awesome! The owner (I'm assuming Peter) hand crafts each sandwich on the list as described or to your specification, and also has a great list of specials each day. It's incredible watching the care and attention that he puts into each sandwich. Pete's is clean, quick, reasonably priced, and most importantly DELICIOUS while not being anything fancy. There's also a lot of healthy (and unhealthy) options to choose from, and the small dining area is kinda cool too. Prices range from $5.00 to $10.00. A great place to visit for lunch.
