Buzzy's Luncheonette is a beloved Jewish deli on Salt Spring Island, celebrated for house-made Montreal Smoked Meat — briskets cured for 8–10 days, smoked for 10 hours, and steamed to order. Founded in 2017 by a former LA standup comic and his wife, the tiny shop punches well above its weight and won the 2019 Salty Award for Best New Business and Best Menu Item. Cyclists crossing to Salt Spring will find hearty, distinctive sandwiches and house-made potato latkes ready for takeout.
