It’s the final day of shooting in Saint John for John Catucci and You Gotta Eat Here! They’re here at Urban Deli today and we’ll be featuring our Uptown Big Beef Bad Boy and the Muffuletta.
We’d love to see you for today’s Food Network taping of the front of the house customer feed back session … We have space available for Noon and 1:30 pm. But please call to reserve at 652-3354.
It should be a fun day!
It may be snowy and windy and still frosty with the January chill, and maybe your school has closed today or even work, but if that’s the case you could drop into Urban Deli. We’re open, and we’re warm!
The food is warm too. It’s from our kitchen where the heat is always on. For instance, you might want to indulge in:
You may even want to close your eyes and imagine you’re somewhere south as you enjoy our Pulled Pork Sandwich or Muffuletta Sandwich.
You might even want to go with something simple and traditional on a snowy, cold day: soup. Our soup is always homemade, fresh and hot.
Urban Deli will be celebrating its first year in business on July 13th. We are also celebrating a year anniversary for two very special team members: Dale and Candy.
Food wise, everything at the Urban Deli begins with Dale and Candy who we label ‘the ladies from the second floor.’
The ladies work daily to consistently prepare our customer’s favourite menu items. From our daily quiche, pulled pork BBQ sauce, gluten-free cheese sauce to our very popular maple vinaigrette and wasabi vinaigrette dressings, split pea and ham soup, homemade buttermilk biscuits, deli mustard right through to our muffuletta ‘muff-uh-LET-uh, Deli burgers and of course the piece de resistance….our homemade desserts.
A meal without one of the Urban Deli desserts by Dale is incomplete. Dale’s repertoire of desserts include and are not limited to; Our very popular carrot cake with filling, lemon sour cream pie, apple crumble, chocolate molten cake and cookies. From our second floor you can find Candy and Dale working hard at squeezing lemons for our scratch lemonade or brewing our famous ice tea made from five tea blends.
Many of our products have been tweaked and fine tuned by the ladies so they can capture the right consistency. Recipes at the Deli are always evolving and we always welcome customer feedback. For everyone at the Deli there is more to our food; It is both an art and a science.
Recipes to success are simple…hire team members like Candy and Dale who:
Thank you Dale and Candy and we look forward to celebrating year two with each of you!

There is story in the Telegraph-Journal today that highlights the Urban Deli as it talks about, “… a resurgence of commercial activity on King Street, the spine of the uptown core.” The story is I’d like a King Street redo, hold the pickle and even has a pic of Liz and the deli.
We’re pretty sure that with the other businesses on King and with the kind of activity we’re seeing that it won’t be long before people are asking, “Is this the same King Street? There are so many people! So much going on!”
Well, if Liz and her team have anything to do with it, that will be the case.
Although only open a few days, we’ve seen loads of people, heard lots of stories and made a huge number of new friends. One thing that seems to catch the eye of the people who come in is our Muffuletta sandwich.
Now, you can search it on the web and find out what it is but what you probably won’t see are details on the Urban Deli’s take on the Muffuletta. So we’re trying to get Liz’s sister (who is kind of an encyclopedia of food) to sit down and write us a brief description that we can post.
Hopefully she will soon (despite running around all day helping out at the deli) and we can put that online for you.
