May your Deli live to be 125
« on: January 15, 2014, 02:50:57 AM »
Light-hearted story about a deli in NY which turned 125...



Could I use a Nosh at the moment?

You shall make yourself the Festival of Sukkoth for seven days, when you gather in [the produce] from your threshing floor and your vat.And you shall rejoice in your Festival-you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, who are within your cities
Duet 16:13-14

Mr. Broadway was still kosher when I was still in the US.
As for today ask somebody who currently lives in NY.
As for Katz's it never was kosher & never will be kosher & they never claimed to be.

Blech..Kosher or not...Have no desire to clog an artery or two with that garbage.
If someone says something bad about you, say something nice about them. That way, both of you would be lying.

Yeah, I realized that it wasn't Kosher when the guy talked about the Philly cheese steak... But I figured it was a good story, and ran it...

How hard it is for a Baal Teshuva to give up meat and cheese. Back in the day (almost 20 years ago) I used to know some of the best Cheesesteak places in Los Angeles.

But I still love a great kosher Corned Beef on Rye sandwich.

I do too.
40-41 years ago some friends of mind & I went into Katz's not knowing it wasn't kosher after a JDL activitie anyway some old guy with a Yiddish accent ala Jackie Mason came over to us seeing we wearing yarmulkas & said boys this place ain't kosher the sign says Katz's that's all it says nothing about being kosher so we promptly walked out.
We were only 14-15 yaer old at the time so we saw a Jewish name & assumed it was kosher.
We learned a powerful lesson that day never assume a place is kosher without seeing a teuda or was back in those days knew the owner was reliable.
See in those days most places had no supervision you just relied on the owner if he was shomer shabbos.
Things have sure changed as you can't trust anybody nowadays without a certificate/teuda.

But it's the one's that have Kosher meats and no milk products but stay open on shabbos and don't kosher their kitchens for Pesach that you really have to be careful of.

Agreed but not only that if there is no kashrus certificate do not trust it plain & simple.
