Delis Are Dying, But Not Katz’s; Per Se Staff Is on the Clock经典的纽约熟食店正在出门，这要归功于老化的所有者，注重腰围的食客和一般的冷漠 - 但是，我们了解到，卡茨应该坚持下去。正如我们预测的那样，一个主人会记录在记录中，说：“如果我们确实出售，我们想以某种方式保持领先地位 - 他们可以在我们顶上建立。”[托尼]相关：怜悯之母！这是卡茨的终结吗？本质上，臭名昭著的高压厨房显然在钟的阴影下工作，保罗·博库塞（Paul Bocuse）的名字和下面的“紧迫感”一词。[Gawker]康尼岛（Coney Island）有自己的啤酒，尽管我们从未品尝过瓶子，但它可能是有史以来最出色的标签。[NYDN]

Battle of the DBs in Forest Hills; JFK to Get the Gourmet TreatmentNever you been to Daniel Boulud’s new restaurant in Forest Hills? That’s because there isn’t one. But Danny Brown’s db wine bar and restaurant sounds close enough to db bistro moderne that the great chef’s copyright is threatened. [Diner’s Journal/NYT] Travelers at JFK airport won’t have to get by on chili dogs much longer – a Todd English eatery, a wine bar, an oyster bar, and more high-end venues are on the way.

Nice. [NYP] Katz’s may be threatened by condo development, but pastrami still has secure fortresses in the outer boroughs. [Gothamist] Related: Mother of Mercy! Is This the End of Katz’s?

怜悯的母亲！这是卡茨的终结吗？Katz’s Deli is about as close to a sacred space as we can think of. Forget landmark status; the place is a shrine, the soul of what remains of New York Jewish-American culture. So the rumors we have been hearing about its imminent purchase by condo developers are disturbing — and not any less so for being a little more persuasive than the ones we’ve heard in the past. Katz’s management denies the move, but ubiquitous restaurant Realtor Alex Picken tells us that he’s getting some specifics through the grapevine.

The 2 Percent of the ‘Saveur’ 100 That MattersIt was with trembling hands that we opened up the保存100,保存magazine’s annual roundup of their 100 favorite food-related things and people in the world. We were soon shocked —震惊呢- 发现只有两个条目引用了纽约美食界。他们会是什么？Wylie Dufresne上的贴合？对卡兹的熟食店大喊大叫？没有。荣誉是在布鲁克林的多米尼加果汁饮料和博客作者的饥饿的出租车店。我们感谢著名的胖戴夫（Fat Dave），因为出租车司机误导自己自称为自己，而在南威廉斯堡（South Williamsburg）229 Hevemeyer Street的Reben Bunnuleonette的MorirSoñando听起来不错。但是，他们真的相当于著名的中国厨师达东（Da Dong）制造的纽约北京的北京北京鸭吗？再说一次，我们理解。 This is New York —保存has to overcompensate on behalf of the rest of the world.

一个“芝士牛排工厂”带蛋糕Six or so months ago, we heard about a Queens restaurant calling itself the “Cheesesteak Factory” that naturally had been sued by the CheesecakeFactory. We didn’t give it another thought until one day recently, when we were walking dejectedly to Katz’s for a stukel pick-me-up and noticed another place called the Cheesesteak Factory, open and doing business on the same block for all the honest world to see. Soon enough, our day brightened.
