"Eating pastrami on rye from Pastrami Queen in Central Park is as quintessentially New York as hailing a cab on 5th Avenue or believing you’re more interesting than people from the Midwest. This Jewish deli in the East 70s has been open since 1956, and it’s where you should go to get excellent (but not overwhelmingly giant) sandwiches with snappy dill pickles on the side. Also, if you don’t want pastrami, the deli turkey here is extra cold, thinly-sliced, and delicious." - hannah albertine
