You Gotta Eat Here!

Tallest Poppy, Cardinal Rule, JR's (1x15)

Air date: Sep 07, 2012

Host John Catucci braids his first challah and discovers new takes on throwback Jewish classics at Winnipeg’s The Tallest Poppy, where the corned elk beats out the beef, and the blintzes are brazen. In Toronto, John goes mental for meatloaf muffins and bears witness to how rules are made to be broken through the magic of deep-fried mac and cheese, all at the modern west-end diner, The Cardinal Rule. And over at JR’s in Almonte, ON, John makes his mama proud juggling spicy meatballs and showing off expert flambéing skills -, well, almost expert!
