The wrap was enormous and filled to the brim with a generous amount of chicken. The meat was tender and the fried skin held its crunch within the wrap. The mango, papaya and cucumber salad was a refreshing side to the filling wrap.
This is as indulgent a lunch sandwich can get. Lobster, crab and truffle oil. The truffle was aromatic and really richen the flavors of the sandwich. The lobster and crab were fresh and in nice large chunks. There was a bit too much dill for me but that's just a personal preference. For the side, I opted for the poutine with cheese on the side. Yes.. french fries are good, but french fries AND gravy is even better. You would think that you'll curl over with a tummy ache and regret eating all of this for lunch, but in fact it didn't seem too heavy.
The thing I like most about the food here, is that you'll walk away without feeling gross. Even the french fries don't leave you with a greasy lining in your stomach. That's key especially if you have to head back to the office and actually get some work done. Larchmont Bungalow shows you that lunch need not be depressing. You don't have to be stuck with a crappy sandwich of processed meats. In fact, you can have the option to choose from many tempting items. You can have lobster for lunch. You can have a healthy yet satisfying meal. And you can have a chocolate cigar at your desk afterwards, if you'd like.
Hits: decor, extensive menu, healthy

You're a turkey sandwicher at your desk too? I knew I liked you! ;)
I actually have a Blackboard Eats code for this place. Will definitely need to make sure I don't let it expire like all my other codes! Eek!
diana, you might wanna check, I think the BBE might be for Larchmont Larder.. not bungalow, right? both good.
I want your lobster and crab sammie! Damn!
I've been meaning to try this place but didn't know if it was worth it. Thanks for the review! I'm all over the chocolate cigar.
