My favorite place Keep it kosher
Reader comment on: 2nd Avenue Deli May Move Uptown on 3rd

Submitted by Arthur, Jan 5, 2007 10:57

Since I was a little boy in Styuvesant Town the family loved 2nd Ave Deli. Once of the last times I took my Dad out to eat was at 2nd Ave Deli. I hope it comes back, and comes back Kosher

It had the best food it kept the area alive through some very rough times.

Hope to eat there soon.
