Interesting...I didn’t think pastrami occurred in any sentence without the word “Reuben” included. (nor should it)

Looks interesting. The old standby, No. 19 at Langer’s, works too.

I saw a pastrami sandwich from some famous deli on TV. It is hard to tell what it tasted like but it sure did look good.

It also looked to be 3 or 4 times what I could eat. There was a huge amount of meat in that thing.

We went to the stage door deli in Times Square. I ordered a brisket. They don’t do half sandwiches.

I took half with me in a stage door bag.

Waited on the street while wife and daughter shopped. Homeless guy came by and asked for $5. I offered him the bag with food. He asked what was in it. I said half a brisket sandwich. He said no thanks I’m a vegetarian.

I have had that happen. I approach homeless people often and ask if they are hungry and offer them food. I ask “what would you like” and they usually say just a hamburger. I go the distance, a grilled chicken sandwich, fries, a salad, and a glass of water. They are shocked when they get it. When they respond “I am vegan,” I say “starve, you are not going to make it off the street by demanding food your way.” It is a gift and now they want to be specific? Get real!

Someone stole the kishka when I turned my back.

He said no thanks I’m a vegetarian.

"...grains and grapes, mostly. Fermented. The grain has to be cooked just right, and then distilled to its essence..."

"He said no thanks I’m a vegetarian."

Preferably the sort of non-meat that can be fermented.

There was a place I went to in Bloomfield, CT that was decent... forget the name though. It was on yelp.com.

You can have my shinka
Take my sweet krusczyki
Take my plump pierogi
You can even have my chernika
Take my long kielbasa
But please bring back my kishka!

My Grandfather loved that kinda stuff. Pretty tasty, actually!

The best and for some the only reason to go to NYC is the food. Even the cheap places are very good.
