"Don’t sleep on this gem of a family-run deli, which has been holding it down in a nondescript San Leandro strip mall since 1986. These days, the newly renovated deli is known, in part, for creative, customer-inspired specialty sandwiches with names like the “Bam Bam” and the “Heat Seeker.” But this is also one of the East Bay’s top spots if you just want a classic cold-cut sandwich. Its most famous offering is probably its so-called Bay Area Special, a Dagwood Bumstead-like beast of a triple-decker sandwich that’s loaded with sliced-to-order roast beef, turkey, and ham." - Luke Tsai
