This sandwich is a hero

The star of the show at Kojax Souflaki in Dollard des Ormeaux is the yero. The recipe is top secret, but Kojax’s Mike Romagnolo lets slip a few ingredients at the diner’s counter: love, passion, 30 years of experience and Kojax’s unique spices.

The yero is drip-down-the-side-of-your-hand juicy, invading your taste buds like a benevolent conqueror. This yero will spoil you for the regular fare one expects at a franchise operation.

If meat on a stick is more your style, the chicken souflaki is equally tender and lovingly marinated. Milder-than-usual tzatziki means you can leave the resto with one peppermint rather than a handful. The Greek salad, served with the brochette or yero platter, doesn’t skimp on feta or salty olives.

The restaurant itself is unassuming and unpretentious, and patrons can choose a quiet booth at the back or sit in front, where the picture windows are left open to the breeze on nice days.
