Surely there are debates on best pastrami in NY, but this is the one I tried when I visited. Mouth watering goodness!

Y'all looking at that and thought it's appetizing? 🀨

Pastrami is one food I just can’t get to like no matter how I try it. Too damn salty for my taste, which is weird for me to say.

Had something like that in SΓ£o Paulo, actually left me full.

I'm going to NY next week and really appreciate the reminder to go eat at Katz again. 🀀

For anyone not familiar- Katz Deli is a somewhat famous sandwich place in NYC. Their primary menu item is the pastrami on rye sandwich, and it's like $20-$30. They slice the pastrami right in front of you, still warm.

I've only had it once but it was worth it.

30 dollars for a sandwich??? you could get a whole cow for that much here

It was worth it... Best pastrami I've ever had

Are they still popular as ever? When I visited in 2016 I was super impressed by the throughput their kitchen maintains.

Fuckin gross, man.

25 bucks well spent. Love their pastrami. Reuben sandwich is also 🀀

Idk man, but using different bread(this one really looks like the German "Kasseler" bread) would probably make it better. Kasseler is fine, but there are so much better bread variants.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Kasseler is best served with mashed potatoes and sauerkraut.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Having never had kasseler bread, I can't really comment on the similarities, but after googling around a little it's probably in the same ballpark. These sort of deli sandwiches are usually served on (what we call in America anyway) "Jewish rye" bread. Just sort of a soft, light rye bread, often with caraway seeds in it (personally I tend to think of the seeds as sort of the defining feature of a Jewish rye) and I couldn't find any mention of kasseler having caraway, but I also didn't exactly do an exhaustive search for recipes.

Kasseler doesn't contain seeds.
