Katz’s Delicatessen – New York, NY
Another spot on Anthony Bourdain’s 13 Places to Eat Before You Die and deserving of the spot it is! A New York legend, the deli sits in the same spot it was founded in in 1888. Known for their pastrami my husband and I decided to split two ruebens, one made with corned beef and the other pastrami. Pastrami was the winner but both were excellent!
If you haven’t been I think this should be on your list for sure. To make yourself feel better try and walk there from wherever you’re staying. You’ll need it to digest once you’re done:)
Once you order your sandwich, the kind people behind the counter will give you a slice of whatever meat it is your ordered. Ours was hot and damn good…definitely makes you anticipate the sandwich even more:)
You also get these two kinds of pickles with your order. My favorite were the dills.
The pastrami rueben…
and the corned beef…yes please!
OMG – so much meat! The first photos looks like Ira might be delivering the mail with that mailman mail cart next to him! Ha!
