review 1: This book is a delightful trip around the world of deli. Growing up in a large Jewish family, we would often have family birthday parties and celebrations at delis, and I've grown up loving deli food. I definitely want to visit some of the delis mentioned (the listing at the end of the book is quite helpful). I also laughed at the glossary of terms. My mom and I particularly got a kick out of the definition for white bread.
review 2: This is the last book that I have read and I thorougly enjoyed it. I guess that was because I couuld identify. Although Pastrami wasnt my favorite I did chase a good corned beef sandwiche at quite aa few deli's in my day. As I recall I never visited any of the deli's in the book with the exception of the ones in Los Angeles and
... moreLas Vegas, I still enoyed reading about Sax's experiences, The book was funny and poignant at the same time. It was a good summer read and well worth the time. I was certainly able to reminice as it added to my pleasure of days past. Iwould recomend this book to any one who just a good laugh or at least some chuckles. Its not heavy , but a pleant enjoyable book. less
