"Mensch’s Deli, an Ashkenazi-style Jewish diner and delicatessen, has opened at 1608 Chicago Avenue in Evanston. Founded by Jack DeMar, Eric Kogan, and Kiki Eliopoulos, the deli offers Eastern European Jewish staples like house-made pastrami, corned beef, smoked fish, blintzes, and more. The deli also serves diners with breakfast dishes and baked treats. The venue is decorated with old family photos and classic deli elements. The founders aim to channel menschlikhkeit by creating a fast-paced yet comforting atmosphere inspired by New York Jewish delis." - Naomi Waxman
