It's time for you to take a trip to Great Neck, New York. Why? Because once you arrive you can head over to Kensington Kosher Deli for one of the most delicious sandwiches you'll ever eat:
Beef Brisket with fried onions and gravy and a schmear of Russian dressing all on a club roll...
You can't go wrong with the standard fare of steaming, fatty pastrami, cut thin and piled high but trust the NYC Food Guy and go for Brisket and an order of steak fries, well done.
I've been eating at Kensington Kosher Deli for almost 13 years and it has never disappointed.
The meats are all spiced and steamed on premises. Every choice ranging from Corned Beef to Tongue is fresh, moist, and delicious.
Let's breakdown the Brisket's deliciousness...
* The beef brisket is moist, fatty and delicious
* The generic beef-stock gravy only enhances the overall gluttonous nature of the sandwich, but adds a textural layer that brings the entire meal up a notch
* The thinly sliced white onions are fried quickly in the deep fryer, taking on nice charred edges while holding onto their onion flavor
* The club roll is thick enough to compensate for the wetness of the gravy while supporting the weight of the brisket, rye bread would not be able to handle this sandwich
* A nice schmear of Russian Dressing on the bottom is highly recommended
* Fries, which must be ordered well done, are an essential complement to any meal at KD, particularly this one
Other great choices at Kensington Kosher Deli...
* Plump, juicy, and fat Hebrew National hot dogs slathered in mustard, ketchup, onions in sauce, and some sauerkraut
* Hearty and crispy potato pancakes
* Famous Knish Nosh Knishes, brought in fresh daily. Ask for your Knish deep fried, it's potato heaven.
* Pastrami, Corned Beef, Roast Beef, and Turkey are all moist, flavorful and delicious
* Chicken Noodle Soup is hot and full of nice sized piece of chicken and plenty of spiral noodles, carrots, and celery
I've been eating at KD for almost 13 years and it has honestly never disappointed. What it lacks in ambiance and atmosphere (the place is about 10 feet wide with a long counter with stools and 5 tables) it makes up for with hearty deli whose authenticity is rivaled only by its deliciousness.
