Langer’s"},"content":{"rendered":"

Los Angeles-based food (and whiskey) review site Sku’s Recent Eats<\/a> takes on the age-old Katz’s (New York) versus Langer’s Delicatessen-Restaurant (Los Angeles) “which pastrami is better?” debate, and we’re pleased with the outcome:<\/p>\n

Katz’s makes a great pastrami sandwich, no doubt about it, but I’m proud to report to all you LA civic pride advocates that Langer’s is indeed better. I view Katz’s meat as the best of the deli pastrami. It is well spiced, tender and full of spicy, meaty flavor, but it is ultimately a great version of the same pastrami you get at every deli in the City. Langer’s, on the other hand, is an entirely different beast. It has very little in common with traditional, sliced deli pastramis. It’s moist and thick and almost more of a meat entree than a cold cut. Biting into a Katz’s sandwich is extremely satisfying, but biting into a Langer’s sandwich is a near religious experience.<\/p>\n

And then there is the bread.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
