Carnegie Deli

We just did a little 3-day trip to New York City for Spring Break, and we heard the Carnegie Deli was a must-do experience. It's at 7th avenue and about 55th Street.

We actually got the Reuben; my first Reuben experience. I'm sure no other will ever compare! But I didn't snap a picture of it, ah. So I swiped this pastrami (?) from online--this is what "sandwich" means there. We decided to split one.

We walked at least 20 blocks to get there at the end of a loooong, looong touristy walking day with a tired, cranky 15 month-old at about the end of his rope. When there, he spilled two glasses of water all over the floor, started to freak, so we got the cheesecake to go, and then we had another looong, loong walk back to our hotel. And I'm telling you it was totally worth it. Plus, the waiter was so nice about our water spills. Loved it.
