Carnegie Deli by stray_shooter

Carnegie Deli

During my trip to New York I couldn't pass up a visit to one of the world's most iconic deli's. You've never had cheesecake quite like the one made and served here. Right in the heart of Manhattan, Carnegie Hall is across the street and up a block or so.
You really should have checked out Katz's delicatessen on the lower east side.....you can get a pastrami sandwich that could feed an army and will give you heartburn for years to come! ;-)) Did you have a good time in NYC? It looks slightly warmer than when I was there in February.

Ad even the icon NYC yellow cab!! Cheesecake?? Do they mail to the West Coast? Yum! Interesting downtown NYC shot.

@aglennc So when we all get together you're going to serve cheesecake?! You won't be able to hide it from us now!

I've only experienced about 6 days of my life in NYC and they weren't on the same trip! Sounds like we should have a California-East meet-up as you all know the good places to eat! And saying that I realize how empty headed that sentence is! New York is *known* for the varied foods and dining, both fun and fine! I hope you were able to milk that trip for what it was worth Ron...

Um-m-m, may have to look this up. I have a trip planned to NY/Manhattan towards the end of this month. I love-e-e cheesecake.

Your image captures the ever-famous impression that NYC pulses with life. And thanks for making me think about cheesecake for the rest of the day.

Now that's what I think NYC is all about - and you even managed to get in a yellow cab - well done!!

@aglennc @Weezilou @simta @marmaladeskyes Many thanks for the comments and apologies in advance for the group reply. I'm far behind in comments, posts, and replies.

I had intended to make it to Katz's as well, @panthora , others had recommended their pastrami sandwich, but I just ran out of time.

Sadly, @summerfield , I never thought to grab a photo - what was I thinking?!?

Hey, I'm also going to be back there at month's end, @clake ! Would be great to get together if possible and practice some street photography!

@Weezilou The Crossings cheesecake was good!

@aglennc Joy and I were too busy devouring 2 plates of those decadent cookies! I *did*, however, get a nice photo of (what was left of) the cheesecake!

@stray_shooter Bring back a cheesecake! That alone would be reason enough to get together! (And I hear those NY cheesecakes travel well!)

@stray_shooter I'm just in NYC for a few days- arriving the night of April 21 and leaving the night of April 25. Does that overlap with any of the time that you are there?
April 14th, 2015  
@clake Unfortunately I'll be arriving on either the 26th or the 27th. Too bad - maybe next trip!

Well, Ron, my cousin and I went to the Carnegie Deli for lunch today on my request and they were closed because of needed repairs/changes to a gasline so didn't get to eat there.
April 26th, 2015  
@clake What a shame that the place was closed. I'm sure you were able to find a suitable substitute, right? As Osia suggested, Katz's Deli is another of top iconic NYC delis, but not quite in the neighborhood there. Next time!
