Langer's Deli
We finally made it to Langer's, home of what many consider the best pastrami sandwich in the United States. That's right, people claim it's better even than the famed Katz's in New York City.
#19: the famous hand cut pastrami sandwich with cole slaw, swiss cheese, and Russian dressing.
#4: corned beef with swiss cheese and Russian dressing.
A giant krinkle cut fry.
We also had an excellent vanilla malt that I forgot to photograph. All in all, a great meal for about $15 each. But (gasp) we liked the corned beef more than the pastrami!
Our friend, who's been to Langer's many times and just got back from a trip to Katz's, said after a few bites "Maybe Langer's is better!" He said Katz's pastrami might have a slightly stronger pepper flavor, but that Langer's bread blows Katz's out of the water. I have to agree. The rye at Langer's is crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, and wonderful warm.

A very modest one! Don't want to show off the bling in the Langer's neighborhood! :) We were offered IDs and greencards as soon as we got out of the car. I'm not kidding. J was asked by two different people. He looked extra grungy that day.
