Katz Deli

This is an interesting one - a deli in  that has managed to survive about three generations, and has become a tourist destination in its own right. Hence, every lunch time, they are overrun with tourists, and have to hire a security guard to ensure everyone behaves themselves. I'm not entirely sure this is the comfortable quiet life that the original owners intended.
The thing I love about this, and about Chick and Ruths back home, is that they serve pickles - not the polite little slices that you put on crackers with cheese in the 70s for an hors d'oeuvre,  but a whole plate of big chunks of them. They're called dill spears, and we now have a jar in our fridge. They're the perfect accompaniment to a Ruben made with not so good corn meat (I think next time we should ask for the pastrami).
Photo is of  half a sandwich. Tip - this is enough for one person, esp with a common plate of chips for the table (fries, ask for fries. don't say chips).
