PSB CAFE

The Origin

PSB Café is cofounded by Matt, Jessie and Ben, three alumni from the Pilon School of Business. From a young age, Matt was influenced by his family and his passion for Coffee and opening his own Café. Jessie is an experienced baker and considers herself a cake connoisseur. And along the way they met Ben, he was a photographer pursuing his master’s in marketing. All three met at their alma mater, where they became fast friends. After graduation, they pursued their respective careers in different parts of the country. They always kept in touch and dreamed about opening a café together someday. During the pandemic they decided to leave their job and open a café. Luckily, they found a great place near both Sheridan Campus, and they decided to take the leap and open a nice cozy coffee café for the students where they can work and chill, while doing that enjoy a nice cup of coffee and snacks.

Read on below for more information about veganism.

Veganism

The term “Vegan” was coined in 1944 by a small group of vegetarians who separated from the Leicester Vegetarian Society in England to form the Vegan Society. Although the vegan diet was defined early on in The Vegan Society’s beginnings in 1944, The term “vegan” was chosen from the combination of the first and last letters of “vegetarian.” By 1949, the first definition of veganism had been born. The society was first registered as a charity in August 1964 but its assets were later transferred to a new charity when it also became a limited company in December 1979.

Types of Veganism: –

The quality of a vegan diet is determined by the food that it is made of. As a result, some vegan diets have many health benefits, while others may not. The vegan diet is classified into the following categories.

Connect Over Coffee at PSB Café

Our Mission at PSB Café 

At PSB Café, we want people to get connected over their favorite drink, now available with vegan alternatives at Sheridan college, Davis and HMC campus. In this fast-paced environment, and the ongoing pandemic we understand the importance of meeting new people. The idea behind this café is to connect as many people as we can while serving the exceptional coffee and snacks with vegan alternatives. We want people to connect along with their choice of drink.  We are dedicated in providing personalized experience with fast service. We use home made bakery recipes which tastes like home, away from home

PSB Café Vision

After the global pandemic, many people have understood the importance of healthy living. People have started to cut down on dairy products. 65% of the world’s population shows a reduction in ability to digest lactose, according to the NIH. Also, roughly 2.3 million Canadians have switched to vegan diets according to a 2020 Statista report.

Consuming dairy if you are a lactose intolerant, can lead to gas, bloating, cramps, or diarrhea. Increased dairy consumption can lead to acne, which is a concern for a lot of teens and adults.

There are plenty of alternatives that we provide at PSB Café. You can have your favorite coffee flavor with vegan options like almond milk, soy milk or coconut milk as per your personalized needs. For bakery products, vegan flour like coconut, chickpea and soy flour is used.

 

Idea for Sheridan Students 

“Connect Over Coffee” is a concept in which we encourage random strangers to connect (or chat!) while waiting for your order at PSB Café. The customers get to choose whether they want to continue the conversation OVER COFFEE. Pandemic made everyone feel the importance of connections and how this busy life made all of us detach. Now with vegan options available, every one can have a coffee with worrying about dairy products.

College time is the most elite time for any student to network. This concept can increase their engagement and learn something new every day at Sheridan College.

Cold Cut Sandwiches at Sheridan

Exclusive to you, our new cold cut sandwiches will be available at the Sheridan College, HMC campus. Our new line of fresh cold cut sandwich is introduced with gluten free and vegan options; sided by both brown and white bread, a variety of toppings and spreads, as well as over ten different cold cut meats. Here at PSB Cafe, we value sandwich making as a form of art and expertise, providing you with nutritious, fresh, and healthy ingredients. Our menu is all about catering towards every angle of preference for the community of Sheridan College.

What Makes A Cold Cut Sandwich The Best?

Cold cut sandwiches provide the most complex of sensations while creating the simplest meal of the day. Cold cut sandwiches are filled with delicious precooked or cured meats that are sliced thinly. To start off, these cold cut meats are typically served in a tray with an assortment of different meat cuts; but, if you were to put them between two slices of bread, your perspective of cold cut meats will take a turn for the better. Moving on, what goes into your cold cut sandwich, besides the meat, is all up to you; this is your avenue of exploration and creativity. Here is our take on the best method of putting a cold cut sandwich together, follow at your own accord and make any changes to preferred toppings!

Not to mention, the secret behind creating and eating the best quality of cold cut sandwiches are the ingredients; don’t cheap out on these! Firstly, there are three basic components to any sandwich, theses three are the bread, the toppings or fillings, and the spread. Each of these components has the potential to break or make the best sandwich. Secondly, the same kind of pairings apply to bread, fillings, and meats as they do with colors; it’s important to mix and match with ingredients that cooperate with each other. Lastly, what makes a great sandwich is that its catered to your personal preference; work with the ingredients you acquire and come up with the best cold cut sandwich to your liking.

Why Are Our Sandwiches The Best?

Considering the ever changing trends towards a healthy lifestyle, PSB Cafe provides every aspect of organic ingredients and harvest from the bread to the core of the sandwich. In the same manner of this, we’d like to share our own experiences with a cold cut sandwich.

A guide to the perfect sandwich

1: Using the right bread.

To clarify, the bread is on the top of the list because it can break or make your sandwich, quite literally. Finding the perfect ration between thickness and crumbly texture to correlate perfectly with the spread.

2: Toppings.

In addition to the bread, it is a key factor to implement the right toppings to ensure the perfect combination of tastes. We’re not looking for too many toppings, but 2 or 3 to fulfill the experience of mouth-watering taste buds.

3: Sogginess.

Most importantly, you don’t want your sandwich to be soggy or stale. This is easily preventable by spreading your choice of sauce to each and every corner of the bread. In this case, this will prevent toppings from creating a wet bread.

4: Spread.

Lastly, you want to look for the perfect spread. Whether that is mayonnaise, chipotle, chutney, salsa, or a vinaigrette. As long as your sauce can incorporate itself with the bread, this will lead to the best sandwich.

In any event, it’s a good idea to have a back up! Here is another great guide which we think will greatly enhance your cold cut sandwich creations. You can also check out our other sandwich blog here!

At PSB Cafe, we offer a wide variety of cold cut sandwiches and all at an affordable price point, check out some of our deals below!
