Good call; I love beef tongue!
Looks like there’s a lot more of the menu for me to explore. Out of convenience I actually only really get Daughter’s Deli now, which is pretty good but has a different feel than Langer’s. Their chicken schnitzel sandwich is all the rage (I believe it went popular on TikTok), but I stick with the “Noi” hot pastrami and mustard, which is basically the Langer’s “OG.”
I need to make it to Langer’s more often; thanks for the inspiration.
I never got around to trying Greenblatt’s, but I do love a Jewish deli. Growing up I’d frequent a Jewish deli in Norcal where we’d all get soups before summer art classes - borscht, beef barley, and sometimes split a “Chicken in the Pot” with kreplach…I digress, but those were comforting soups and emblematic of fond times.
Agreed, all. Diner style is the only way to go! It’s that crust and how it works with well-done hash browns for me. (Not at Langer’s, but at a diner in Norcal) many a late-night meal for me during high school years was corned beef hash, well-done hash browns, an over-easy fried egg, buttered rye toast, and later a slice of peach or boysenberry pie warmed up and a Lipton BRISK Iced Tea to drink (which is way too sweet for me now).
