This place has been on my list forever, and I finally made it there when I realized that I might not be in NYC for too long…

It was quite an experience standing impatiently in the line, watching the staff cutting the meat, and staring jealously at the one in front who got to taste a couple slices of the pastrami being prepared.

The sandwich actually looked somewhat smaller to me – compared with all the pictures I’ve seen online. But they’re tasty and filling!

We also tried the cherry and cream soda. Both were good to wash down the overdose of meat, but thinking back, I don’t really recall anything special about them.
