"Maciel’s doesn't take shortcuts when it comes to their housemade plant-based meats. This Highland Park deli uses blends of beans, chickpeas, and tofu to make versions of pastrami, chorizo, and even hoagie-style cold cuts, which you can also purchase by the pound. Breakfast items like a tofu-skin chicharron breakfast burrito and maple sausage breakfast bowls are available until noon, but you can order sandwiches filled with juicy Mexican-style short rib, or a loaded Italian with salami and chopped pepperoncini, all day." - sylvio martins, garrett snyder
