This is the Rueben from our favorite Sherman’s Deli in Palm Springs.
For Father’s Day, I wanted to treat my husband to a nice breakfast or lunch. We heard about a Jewish Deli that we hadn’t tried yet. We were told it was pretty good.
Well, what a disappointment. It was nothing like what we’re used to. My husband had a breakfast burrito that he took two bites of and left it. I had a Rueben and potato salad. The sandwich was okay. But they didn’t grill the bread and the corned beef was tough. I took it home and doctored it up. The potato salad was inedible.
There’s always a line at Sherman’s. But not for us. We’d be spotted and whisked to a table by the manager. That was the advantage of being a local in a tourist town.
We haven’t found fabulous food in Arizona, which is why we hardly ever go out. It’s always a let down. I should take that back and say there are a few places I like, but they are a trek from our house.
The good news is we’re visiting a friend in New York and I can probably get my fill of fabulous food. I’m also hoping to meet LA from Waking Up On the Wrong Side of 50 in person.
What is your favorite food to go out for?
