Surely there are debates on best pastrami in NY, but this is the one I tried when I visited. Mouth watering goodness!

    I could never eat all that. I tend to eat until I’m full then I stop. No need to stuff yourself so much you need a nap.

    Edit: Not that it matters but who downvoted this. I want to know the why?

      This place is known for both their price and portion size. I generally get two meals out of a single $30 sandwich.

      Regardless of how popular the place is with tourists, it is still a classic.

      And, bonus: if the line is too long you can just go to Russ and Daughters a block away and grab a pastrami lox bagel (see attached).

        Russ and daughters is like stepping in a time machine and going back to the 30s/40s. Great place ! I just love the lower Eastside. Clinton st bakery, the imho even better Pause cafe. I really miss NYC

        A sandwich for £22 is crazy. No matter how big it is. I could eat Monday to Friday for that.

        To each their own and they do look lovely, I’m just not a food guy. I eat else I die is my relationship with food.

          It’s a lot, but the sandwiches are huge. NYC is the only place I’ve been where the sandwiches are usually big enough for 2-3 people.

          It’s also one of the cheaper cities to eat as a tourist. No need for restaurants, just grab a sandwich that lasts all day. Or cheap street food, or something from a hole in the wall. I love it there.
