While some of its best-known delis have recently shut down, New York City (and Manhattan in particular) remains one of the best places in the country for Jewish deli food, with such iconic spots as Katz’s, 2nd Ave Deli and Barney Greengrass among the best-known names.
Boston may have some decent delis as well, but heading back on Interstate 84 after overloading with corned beef sandwiches, potato pancakes and the like in The Big Apple can often make travelers want to have just one more memorable deli experience before returning to the Bay State.
I-84 is a mostly dark and deserted highway that seems to go on forever (which makes some wonder how such a small state as Connecticut can seem so big), and at times it seems that there is no hope of finding any kind of dining spot to grab some food, since so many of the roads exiting the highway look as dark as the highway itself…
