In Search of Pastrami

David Sax, in his 2009 book Save the Deli, bemoaned the loss of traditional Jewish delis. Here is a list of delis that are of blessed memory :

Ithaca, NY – Hal’s

Dallas – Phil’s

Miami – Wolfie’s, Corky’s, The Rascal House

Since we’ve lived in the Seattle area, several delis have gone extinct. The I Love New York Deli started out at Pike Place Market, then moved to the University District. Stopsky’s was on Mercer Island. We never made it there. In the last few months, Goldberg’s Deli closed. This leaves Julian and me with one question:

What do we have to do to get a decent pastrami sandwich or whitefish salad in this town?!?
