Manny’s is an institution.... I haven’t been there in awhile, but it is outstanding and pricy. I would imagine the corned beef sandwich has to be up around $9 or so.... wrongo. I just checked the menu.

They closed around 3-4PM until maybe the last year or two. Now they serve dinner.

Reminds me of the aliens in the TV series “V”. Creepy!

...With a little sauerkraut he could have had, but chose not to have, a Ruben.

CRAP. I haven't had a ruben in 15 years...Now it's like the song I can't stop humming...Good Lord those are so good.

And I bet there's quite a few other folks here thinking the same thing.

You all are lucky you don’t live in Chicago. We’ve been bombarded with this kind of “news” non-stop for weeks. Almost every newscast leads off with an Obama story—even if its just announcing what school his daughters will go to, or where he ate lunch. I don’t turn the tv on, I can’t take any more. Every newspaper has Obama on the front page, with special supplements on the weekend. I may have to move to another state or lose my sanity.

“Why corned beef and not pork barbecue?”

Manny's doesn't serve pork—it's a Jewish deli.

First time I have agreed with The0ne on anything. Darn good corned beef at Manny’s....Wonder if he chowed on one of the potato pancakes?

My husband had a corn beef sandwich with sauerkraut on Jewish Rye bread today. I'll have to salute him next time I see him.

Manny’s is a great deli/restaurant. It’s one of those places where you slide your tray along as you pick your food. I was addicted to their brisket of beef sandwiches (not corned beef), just plain beef brisket. With a bit of horseradish on it, on an onion kaiser roll. May favorite. I worked at the Univ. of IL at Chicago (UIC), and my Department was only about 5 blocks away from Manny’s. I’ve retired and live in the burbs, however, I really want to get back to Manny’s one day for a lunch feast. The food there is fantastic.

Corned beef and cabbage used to be popular with Irish immigrants. O’Bama is just getting back to his roots.

As important as this story may be, I am still waiting for clarification on the dog issue. I am on tenterhooks, unable to eat, sleep, or concentrate until that is settled and we find out which breed he picks and what the kids will name it. All else is insignificant and meaningless.

get used to the NO NEWS, everything is about local spots no Internatioal reports. that is what we had going during the clinton administration. I would wake up on 5:30 am, and there would be nothing but overnight accidents around the valley. boring. but they will cover everything for this as alqaeda calls it the

George W. Bush hates corned beef, and he kicked a kitten that was in the corned beef diner.

"We got the smoked turkey," Palin said as she made her way around the counter at Sam McGee's deli. Asked by a reporter what she thought about the auto industry, she responded with a smile: "I got the smoked turkey."

Man, that Palin - she's such a moron...

On the other hand, Obama is brilliant, and KNOWS how to handle those pesky reporters. I'm thinking that Obama is running the most brilliant President-Electship in US history. I just wish he could somehow gift the rest of us ordinary mortals with just a scintilla of his inspired GodHeadedness.

He's just effing brilliant!

$10.95 for just the corned beef sandwich. $5.00 for a sandwich is pushing it for the peasants.

Ann Sanner, official American Pravda court sycophant, wrote this “fluffer” piece.

At least he was smart enough not to stand in front of the slaughter floor in the slaughter house.
