LA Weekly: Langer’s Hot Pastrami on Rye #9 on 100 Favorite Dishes List for 2012

The LA Weekly has named the classic hot pastrami on rye sandwich served by Langer’s Delicatessen-Restaurant as #9 on its 100 Favorite Dishes list for 2012.

We’re thrilled to receive this honor, and even more happy with the terrific write-up by Garrett Snyder:

Some patrons might push first-timers to order the #19, a combination of Russian dressing, Swiss cheese and coleslaw. This is a mistake, though still quite delicious. Instead opt for impeccable minimalism and order the plain pastrami sandwich, made with layers of impossibly tender beef speckled with fat and fragrant with pepper and curing spices. Slices as thick as dominoes sit between two slices of fresh rye bread — a smear of mustard is all you need.
