"John and Michael Georgiou’s Ashkenazi-Jewish deli in Edgware is the custodian of arguably the best deli sandwiches in the city. If pastrami is the meat of choice in New York, then London’s pick is surely salt beef, austerely seasoned and thick-sliced, perfectly rosy with flavoursome inlets of fat. Here, it’s the melt-on-the-tongue tongue that is the standout, the texture of meat fudge melded with mustard and caraway. Portions, unlike Katz’s in New York aren’t ludicrously large, which means it’s possible to save room for latkes, possibly to insert into the sandwich, or a gigantic slice of lokshen pudding for dessert." - James Hansen, Jonathan Nunn
