Go Deli is baking it up fresh - daily

Go Deli, the latest eatery to open in Downtown Renton, has got a lot to offer in the sandwich and snacking department. Fresh bread is made from scratch on the premises daily for the traditional bahn mi Vietnamese 10" sandwiches served on french bread and the croissants for the traditional sandwiches of the more Western flavor. You can smell it in the air and see it in the lovely displayed loaves of bread behind the counter, this is a place that you can count on for tastiness and freshness.

With only local spots like Quiznos and Subway to get a quick and reasonable midday bite to eat, Go Deli is a great addition. For an extra two bucks, you can "make-it-a-meal" with a bag or chips or an eggroll and a 24 ounce soda. With the price of the sandwiches beginning at $2.69 -$4.29, with the bulk of them being below three bucks, this is a place that you must try at least once and then see if you are not hooked. Check daily to see what the fresh soup of the day is now that the season is bringing in the chill air.

Local bahn mi spots are not so easy to find in the greater Seattle area - and can be hole-in-the-wall joints that makes you wonder what the kitchen looks like. Here, you can see all the way through the entire cooking and baking area - and feel confident that you are getting authentic food in very clean environment where freshness is king.

The traditional beginner bahn mi sandwich would be the Grilled Chicken (pictured above) or the BBQ Pork. For the more adventurous and seeking an authentic flavor, try the Special Combo #2 or the Saigon Bacon. There is Vietnamese Coffee or Bubble Tea to go with it, as well as some other specialty drinks like fresh soybean and sugar cane juice, and as always, some Thai Iced Tea to round things out.

The good snacking comes in with the pastry, muffins and cookies that manager Dawn Hart (pictured above with owner John Lu) has been cooking up for Go Deli. There is a limited espresso coffee menu to accompany those treats and boxes of goodies to take on the go if you want to share something with coworkers or friends.

Go Deli will be having their Grand Opening on December 12th with live Jazz Music and a giveaway of an IPOD - so you should definitely go down and enter to win - no purchase necessary. But you will want to dive in and try something once inside the doors - you just won't be able to help yourself.

Soon there will be sandwiches

Soon there will be hot, fresh sandwiches in Renton. Bahn Mi Vietnamese sandwiches and traditional American sandwiches on bread that is baked right on site and a coffee bar where you can get your caffeine hook-up to boot. Note the lovely and inviting fireplace as well. Hard to imagine it this week, but this will be a toasty destination once the wetness remembers to fall from the sky and our temperature numbers begin to drop in the Fall.

The project is moving quickly apace and next month is slated for the Grand Opening of Go Deli, which is owned by Pho Hoa Noodle Soup Restaurant on the corner. After a mere handful of months since opening my new favorite dessert spot, Yoggi Yogurt just around the corner, I am impressed that the owners were willing to move on this new investment so fast. However, with no bakery in the vicinity and no sandwich shop nearby to fight for our hungry stomachs attention, I feel certain that this will be a successful venture right from the start.

Hot, freshly made bread. Your choice of a Vietnamese sandwich or a good ole American sandwich. Coffee/espresso at the ready, big fireplace to cozy up to when it gets chilly in the Fall. Open from 7 am till 7 pm to meet all your eating needs. Sounds perfect, doesn't it?

The owners of the new Yoggi Yogurt, and the Pho Hoa restaurant on the corner of S. Third St., plan to open this Bakery/Deli Shop at the end of July, beginning of August of this year, just around the corner in the building that used to house the Secondhand Furniture Store. Hooray! Things in Downtown Renton never looked better!
