Save the Deli wins a Canadian Culinary Book Award!
Friday, November 5th, 2010
Some news from the homeland. I just got back the Canadian Culinary Book Awards, where Save the Deli took home a gold award (actually it’s a big hunk of crystal shaped like an iceberg) in the category I was nominated in (English Special Interest). Thanks to Cuisine Canada, their sponsors, as well as all the folks who came out today to sit through the presentations.
Obama Stokes the Deli Base at Philly’s Famous 4th Street Deli

Just days to go until Midterm Elections in the US, and with the Democrats lagging in the poles, President Deli himself stopped into one of Philly’s finest to strategize over corned beef at Famous 4th Street Delicatessen:
Obama, who is no stranger to deli, as I’ve chronicled here, ordered a corned beef reuben with potato pancakes, and sweet iced tea. Was the tea a subtle reference to the Tea Party’s impending onslaught at the polls? Probably not, but I’m out of jokes today.
