Vegan Jewish Deli Sam & Gertie’s to Open in December in Uptown - Eater Chicago
"Sam & Gertie's from local restaurateurs Andy Kalish and his wife Gina will be entirely vegan. Located at 1309 W. Wilson Avenue, it’s moving into the space formerly occupied by the couple’s Detroit-style pizzeria Longacre. They’ve slated the deli to open December 5, but hope to launch ahead of schedule. Named for Andy Kalish’s maternal grandparents Sam and Gertie Stuart, the deli will serve as a tribute to his childhood experiences in Jewish delis in Detroit and the surrounding suburbs." - Naomi Waxman
