In my opinion you have to eat certain things when in New York City. You have to eat pizza (you also have to call it a "slice" when you order). You have to eat a large pretzel, which I have had my fill of forever and did not eat on this trip and you have to eat a pastrami sandwich.
I love pastrami, a Rueben Sandwich is possibly one of my favourite things in the world. The pastrami sandwich in New York is one of the great joys in my life when ever I am there.
We were on the way back from High Line Park and waiting for our tour of SOHO to start and had about an hour to kill so we asked one of the locals in the shops where a good place to eat would be. They pointed us about a block over to Amelias diner.
This is a typical diner. long bar with round stools. Decor of bright orange and wood tabled booths. Looked like every diner in the 60s you have every seen on TV. You are blasted by the smell of coffee and bacon when you walk in.
We were seated and I was blown away by the size of the menu, about 5 pages of choices. I did not look to far though, this was the perfect place to get my Pastrami Sandwich.
Not much to tell, it arrived cut diagonally and toasted. stacked high with shaved pastrami, sauerkraut mustard and cheese. Served with fries. I was in heaven.
If you are in NYC and need to hunt down a good pastrami to satisfy your craving. this is a good place to go.
Cheers and Bon appetit
