"SEND A SALAMI" fine art print has been released as part of my New York City gallery.
A small deli in New York’s Lower East Side has been serving locals since 1888. Originally under the name of "Iceland Brothers", Katz's Delicatessen became a regular in the early part of the 20th century for the thousands of newly immigrated families.
During World War II, the three sons of the owners were serving their country in the armed forces, and the family tradition of sending food to their sons became the company slogan “Send A Salami To Your Boy In The Army” (TM). To this day Katz's Delicatessen goods can be shipped anywhere in the USA.
The deli has been featured in books and films including the famous scene in When Harry Met Sally ("I'll have what she's having!"). Each week thousands of visitors from around the world (including me) visit Katz's to devour amazing sandwiches, platters and meats. But it's New Yorkers that make Katz what it is, spreading the word and recommending it as a must-have experience, just as my AirBNB host did for me.
I shared a table with locals as I devoured the most popular dish of them all, the pastrami on rye. I savoured the unique Lower East Side atmosphere that packed every crevice, and reached for my camera to capture the scene which would imprint Katz's Delicatessen to my memory.
