The Classic LA Deli Power Rankings

"In no world does Canter's deli food compare to that of Langer’s, Brent’s, or Factor's, but doesn't matter when you stumble into this Fairfax landmark at 3:30am. You’ll see drunk club kids standing in line next to your 70-year-old landlord, and the band you just saw play at The Roxy passed out in a booth by the bathroom. It’s a complete mess, and also an LA rite of passage. And if you feel like you have one more round in you, head to Kibitz Room, the attached bar in the back that’s every bit as weird as you’d think." - brant cox, garrett snyder
