Part culinary travelogue, part cultural history, Save the Deli is a
must-read for anyone whose idea of perfect happiness is tucking
into a pastrami on rye with a pickle on the side
Corned beef. Pastrami. Brisket. Matzo balls. Knishes. Mustard and
rye. In this book about Jewish delicatessens, about deli's history
and characters, its greatest triumphs, spectacular failures, and
ultimately the very future of its existence, David Sax goes deep
into the world of the Jewish deli. He explores the histories and
experiences of the immigrant counterman and kvetching customer;
examines the pressures that many delis face; and enjoys the food
that is deli's signature.
In New York and Chicago, Florida, L.A., Montreal, Toronto, Paris,
and beyond, Sax strives to answer the question, Can Jewish deli
thrive, and if so, how? Funny, poignant, and impeccably written,
Save the Deli is the story of one man's search to save a defining
element of a culture -- and the sandwiches -- he loves.
