\u201cIt\u2019s our way of saying \u2018thank you most kindly\u2019 to our friends, fans, and patrons who have been there for us over our 65-year history,\u201d says owner Norm Langer.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe #19 is our most popular sandwich, and what better way to celebrate our anniversary than by giving back to those who have helped us get to this point \u2014 our valued customers.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Langer\u2019s 65th Anniversary Celebration is brought to you by Langer\u2019s Deli, the City of Los Angeles, and Council District 1, represented by Council Member Ed Reyes.<\/p>\n
Langer\u2019s Deli first opened its doors as a 12-stool luncheonette at 704 South Alvarado on June 17, 1947. Norm\u2019s parents, Al and Jean Langer, created the #19 sandwich as part of their signature menu featuring numbered entrees. The #19 features hand-cut hot pastrami, cole slaw, Russian dressing, and Swiss cheese, all on warm, double-baked rye bread with a crunchy crust.<\/p>\n
Langer\u2019s will be open with extended hours over the two-day celebration, from 8AM to 9PM Pacific time on Friday, June 15, and from 630AM to 9PM on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Fans, friends and customers who wish to join the Langer family during the celebration will be most welcome. Each customer is eligible to receive one free #19 Sandwich; the only requirements are that the customer be seated and served by a Langer\u2019s server inside Langer\u2019s Deli on standard Langer\u2019s seating (a booth, a counter stool, or a Langer\u2019s chair) during the event hours; free #19 Sandwiches are not available for to-go orders. One sandwich per customer per day, please!<\/p>\n
