Katz's Deli: Ess Gesunt!


Katz's Delicatessen
in the Lower East Side has been serving up fat pastrami and knoblewurst sandwiches since 1888 and orgasms since Harry met Sally. Today you can sit at the actual table where the iconic scene took place and draw on the magic (we passed):


Yuko and I don't eat meat, so I had a bagel and lox, a can of Dr. Brown's Cream Soda and the best sour pickle I've ever tasted...


Yuko ordered the Matzo Ball Soup and Dr. Brown's Black Cherry soda...


For dessert we shared a slice of pecan pie and a plate of blintzes...

Katz's Deli has been known as the best in town for decades, attracting everyone from Bill Clinton to Dom DeLuise and the Wu Tang Clan. Photos cover the walls of people seeking the manna...


As original owner Willy Katz put it in yiddish, Ess Gesunt! or eat in good health!
