Langer's Delicatessen-Restaurant

LOS ANGELES / CALIFORNIE DU SUD

@petitfute

"Les meilleurs pastramis sur pain de seigle de toute la Californie du Sud. Langer's est tellement apprécié des Angelenos que le croisement entre la 7th street et Alvarado street est surnommé le Langer's Square. Metrolink a même placé un arrêt juste en face du restaurant, ce qui le rend accessible en transports en commun. Les sandwichs provoquent le même plaisir qu'un deli new-yorkais, ce qui fait encore de Langer's un classique absolu à L.A. Un fabuleux mélange de clients, jeunes et moins jeunes, riches et pauvres, ajoute à l'ambiance conviviale du restaurant."

"#69 During a recent lunch at this Westlake landmark I fretted over my order, debating whether to branch out from the deli’s momentous pastrami sandwich. Maybe goulash with noodles this time? Or a hot beef tongue sandwich instead, or the restaurant’s take on the roast beef French dip? The server studied me with patience and then said, “Hon, you should just order the #19 again. It’s the best thing we do.” She was right, of course. The pastrami — brined, peppered, smoked, steamed and shaved by hand into rosy kerchiefs — towers between two slices of double-baked rye bread with coleslaw, Swiss cheese and Russian dressing. The world fades in the face of such perfection; it’s you, in a brown, tufted booth, with the happy cadence of clattering silverware and myriad languages ringing through the dining room. If you seek variety, try a bowl of matzo ball soup and the #28, a monster also known as the Fresser: pastrami, corned beef, tongue, turkey, Swiss, boom. May Langer’s thrive forever. Beer and wine. Validated lot parking at 1923 W. 7th St. Credit cards accepted."
