Not eligible for shipping to CanadaTwo of 2nd Ave Deli’s most iconic dishes, shipping straight to your kitchen! The Pastrami Sandwich kit includes fresh-baked rye bread, deli mustard, Russian dressing, and the same smoky, salty pastrami that’s been served at the restaurant for more than 50 years, with pickles on the side. And their “Jewish Penicillin” is the real deal: Heat up the rich chicken consomme, drop in the handmade matzoh balls, noodles, and carrots, grab a spoon, and dig into a big bowl of the soup that’s been comforting New Yorkers for decades.
One of America’s most renowned and beloved Jewish delis, the 2nd Ave Deli has been a New York icon since its founding by Abe Lebewohl as a tiny 10-seat East Village lunch counter in 1954. A much-loved New York personality, Abe got his start as a Coney Island soda jerk. He spent years learning the ropes before opening his deli, and thanks to his hard work it grew to become a New York institution, attracting locals, tourists, celebrities, and everyone in-between for what many believe to be the city’s best pastrami & corned beef sandwiches, matzoh ball soup, and more deli classics. Today the Certified Kosher deli is run by Abe’s nephews Josh and Jeremy, who are keeping Abe’s dream – and his beloved recipes – alive.
All of 2nd Ave Deli’s foods have been Certified Kosher by the International Kosher Council, and are produced and prepared under strict IKC supervision.
