Yeh, Yeh, I've heard it all. Brooklyn delicatessens are da bomb!! Well, in fact this haven, in variety and quality for foodies has few rivals. This is where we come for the pastrami to make a 'Reuban's sandwich'. But before our gaze melts in heady profusion of delectables and fine charcuteries, we are offered a taste of chicken liver with onions, as silky as foie gras. My femme rolls her eyes in ecstasy while hold all expressions in a passionate embrace.

We watch as a podze calf's tongue , get thinly sliced. Another taste offering.... complex and delicate and oh-so-satisfying. next to the traditional fare lie the house dishes : duck pastrami, hazelnut sausages which the owner enthusiastically offers us to taste. These treats would keep us going as long as we could taste the whole shop.
