Benny's Market in Strathcona

How have we never made a post about Benny's Market? If you live in Strathcona or you know people who do then you are more than likely familiar with this institution of Vancouver.

How have we never made a post about Benny's Market? If you live in Strathcona or you know people who do then you are more than likely familiar with this institution of Vancouver. This deli/sandwich spot/corner store has been in the same location for almost 90 years and serves up some of the best sandwiches in town, aloing with a bunch of imported sundries and other goodness. Originally this post was simply going to be about Janet's batch of monster cookies that she baked up and I happened upon during a recent visit but I figured I should preface it with a little bit about the market itself. That's Benny on the left there.

And here's Janet's batch of monster cookies, I had one and I must say it was quite delicious:

Janet bakes up batches of cookies all the time and has more than a few fans who check in regularly to see what the current variety is. Next post I make about Benny's I'll probably work a deli/sandwich angle to show you what you may be missing for lunch.

Oh, and they have a web site!
