What to order
- Pastrami on rye, mustard only — No mayonnaise, no lettuce. The benchmark, and the only correct construction.
- Corned beef — The comparison. If both are good, the deli is good.
- Matzo ball soup — A floater or a sinker — both camps are right, and it tells you about the kitchen.
- A knish — Potato, baked not fried, if they make their own.
How to spot a good one
- A slicer running constantly — Meat sliced when you order it. Pre-sliced deli meat oxidises and goes leathery within hours, and it is the single biggest quality variable.
- Pastrami hand-carved, not machine-sliced — Jewish delis carve navel pastrami by hand in thick irregular slices. Machine-thin pastrami is a different eating experience entirely.
- Meat cured on site, or a named supplier — The good ones will tell you. Vagueness usually means a distributor.
