[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The old school kosher Jewish delis are disappearing. My grandmother would take me to one as a kid where she lived in Brooklyn and I’d get belly lox on a bialy and she’d get a tongue sandwich (never tried it but I’ll admit it smelled good). We would then split a black and white cookie down the middle. I liked vanilla and she liked chocolate so it was perfect.  A lot of them have closed as tastes have changed and younger generations don’t want to take them over. Who’s eating tongue, borscht, matzo ball soup, derma, stuffed cabbages, kugel etc anymore.

Jews eat these things still of course. There aren’t good delis in the DC area but they’re alive and well in NYC. [/quote]

NP. If you're actually in the DC area, you can both get most or all of these things at Parkway Deli and/or Snider's (Jewish grocery store) near Downtown Silver Spring. Kosher Pastry Oven Restaurant in Wheaton? And I'd guess at Attman's or Ize's in Potomac/Rockville, but I haven't been. Don't know about DC or NOVA but I'm sure there's some. [/quote]

Also Celebrity Delly in Falls Church although they don't do the bowl of pickles on the table the way they did 20 years ago.[/quote]
