Eggs Benedict sampler
We've all been in that situation where no one can agree on where to eat. New York Deli to the rescue. With a varied menu that hits the sweet spot between breakfast all day, well-made sandwiches, grilled items, catering, salads and more, it's the something-for-everyone spot both downtown and on the Southside. Omelets ($7.95-$11.95) are a no-brainer, and the deli has 'em in spades, from the simple three-egg plain to the more complicated concoctions like California with spicy sausage and the asparagus with hollandaise. Try also an enticing array of sandwiches with options for the meat-free such as the grilled cheese with green chile ($8.95, though one with bacon is available at $9.95) or the meat-obsessed like the Monterey chicken sandwich with melted Swiss, avocado and onion ($11.95). The bagels aren't half bad, either, and run the gamut from the usual seedy suspects to the just-spicy-enough green chile. New York Deli caters as well, and serves up a damn fine cup of coffee from smiling, friendly waitstaff who always remember their regulars.
