The Best Jewish Delis: What's Your Favorite?
Couple of Rules when discussing "real" delis:
1. If the place serves a Reuben, it is not a real deli.
- Real Delis do not serve milk. Period. End of Story.
- Katz, Carnegie, Artie's, Sarge's, Stage all FAKE. Does not matter how long they have been open, if there is milk on the menu might as well be a McDonalds.
2. Real Delis are Kosher. That is the heart and the soul of the Deli. It is there reason for being.
3. When Second Avenue Deli closed, the era of the great NY Kosher Deli in Manhattan ended with it. Maybe, the Second Avenue Deli on Third Avenue will live up to its predecessor. Probably not. There is no point in looking for a real deli in Manhattan any more. Does not exist.
The Future of the Jewish Deli
If you want good rye bread go to:
Moishe's
It is on Second Avenue and 6th Street.
It makes real Jewish Rye.
And it is Kosher as opposed to the fake delis (like Arties, Sarge's, Stage, Carnegie, Katz) that people keep talking about. People who think Carnegie and Katz's are real deli probably also think that a McDonald's bacon and egg bagel is a real bagel.
