Cowb0t: I am on the other side of the country, but if anyone has a recommendation for the PNW I am all ears.

i feel a lot of emotions about this 57-sandwich thing

@swordsjew.bsky.social Is this a coincidence or what? www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

57 Sandwiches That Define New York Citywww.nytimes.com A portrait of the five boroughs between two slices of bread.

I know this is going to be controversial, but I do not enjoy the thick dense meat pile NY style sandwich. It's too much for me, the nuances of the other ingredients are lost.

i mean new york has like ten thousand or more sandwich varieties but i think you mean the classic jewish deli meat on rye which, while delicious to me, i acknowledge is not for everyone

i would, however, argue it's worth seeking out a real authentic jewish deli and giving the ol' pile of pastrami with sharp mustard a shot, cuz ny and ny style are not precisely the same

ive never been here so grain of kosher salt, but this website is hitting the right notes for me (lokshen kugel, gribenes) dingfelders.com

Dingfelder's Delicatessen, Seattle - Dingfelder's Delicatessendingfelders.com We are an authentic NY Jewish Delicatessen. Serving pastrami, corned beef, and egg salad sandwiches in Capitol Hill, Seattle

Thank You, I'll take a look when I'm in the area.

I live down the street from Dingfelders and have had friends in the area originally from NYC endorse them.

I made it to Dingfelder's today! Driving my treasures home right now.

Keep us updated, I'm already planning a trip up there.

A++, in my estimation. Matzo ball soup, Reuben, pickles and kugel (sweet) were all top tier! Sandwiches are massive so will "Seattle size" it down a few ounces next time. I bought a Cel-Ray soda too!

Sadly Portland's Jewish delis closed, except for the vegan one. I guess that niche is ripe for another experiment.

I went to Kornblatt's a couple times, I wish I had gone more.

I wish I'd gone to this cart/restaurant that closed. I mostly cook the basic stuff at home, but it's pretty hard to source good corned beef or whitefish. pdx.eater.com/2024/5/29/24...
