They filed for bankruptcy but last I heard they want to remain in business. Guess they will close unprofitable stores

Sorry but who grills pastrami?

It should be boiled with appropriate spices which will render out most of the fat.

After finished cooking let it rest and then slice very thin on slicing machine.

It tends to be kind of a fatty meat but dripping down the side of your hand is not a good thing.

Toojays had good burgers and chicken breasts, do not care for their style of knishes prefer a flatter square one such as Gabilla supplies but unfortunately will not ship here here and knishes at Publix is hit and miss and rather expensive (double what we paid in NJ).

Hmmm. Closing because of high rents, and not because people started making their own pastrami and stopped going.

Most Villagers think a Deli is either a WAWA or Subway weighing there portions a true Deli gives you Quality and Quantity and might cost a little more. You will never be disappointed visiting a neighborhood Italian Market fresh cut meat on Fresh Italian Bread or Hard Roll. Currently Jersey Mikes is a much better sub than Subway/WAWA in my book til something better shows up.

I started making my own Pastrami when restaurants were restricted, as a challenge to myself for something to due also started making my own Mild Italian Sausage.

Glad to hear someone else who knows Pastrami. I have had it grilled B4 but preferred Steamed on good Seeded Rye, Swiss, Deli mustard and Half Sour Pickle on the side.

This location will be empty for a long time. Until the restaurant traffic picks up in a post-COVID-19 world, no company in their right mind would open a new location. I bet at least one or two restaurants in SS will close permanently.

I would like to know the source of the high rent comments.
An urban legend!!

I asked 1963, no answer...........just spreading crap.


:ho:

With as many who with came from NY or traveled there just for deli, many know what a deli sandwich is. We do have more than a few from Jewish community who orders bagels, lox, bread, meats, and so on from NY. Our family never visits without bringing fresh bagel and lox

Since the Developer is finding it difficult to rent office space 2nd floor locations, asking Lady Lake to re zone. There is plenty of off Villages Property under Construction and being occupied. Questioning my Eye/Surgeon Dr why he did not build within golf cart access he advised Business Rental charges/fees to costly. There also was a proposed Bowling Alley planned for Brownwood which was offered to the current owner of both Bowling Alleys Spanish Springs also same issue, Bowling being so popular why haven’t some one else jumped at it. The Villages Business advises that there is over $10 Billion in buying power problem maybe no ones spending.

You should be blessed with such a great family.

Yes it's boiled. And then you slice it wafer-thin. And THEN you grill it on a flat grilling pan on the stove, until it starts getting crispy around the edges. Then you bunch it up, toss swiss cheese on top and slide it off the pan when the cheese just starts to melt, onto a GRILLED buttered piece of rye bread, toss some sliced raw red onion on that, then top it with another buttered piece of rye bread. Then you flip that bad boy over back onto the grill to grill that second piece of bread, smushing it down so that it'll fit in your mouth when you take a bite and so that the cheese melting from the heat of the smushing makes the bread, onions, and meat all get "glued" together. No mustard. Just eat.

It's called a Pastrami Special and it was the specialty of a diner my dad used to take us to when we lived in Hamden, CT.

Hmmm. Now there's ground floor space for apartments in SS.......
