We were thrilled to play host to Nick Hardwick of the Los Angeles Chargers. Nick’s new program is designed to show Chargers fans from San Diego as well as Los Angeles places to visit when they come to town for game weekends. (Remember, we’re closed Sunday, but fans will be at the game anyway! Visit us Saturday for all your tailgate needs!).

Norm Langer appeared this morning on KTLA 5 Morning News, discussing the now-legendary gentleman’s bet between LAPD Chief Charlie Beck and NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton over the Stanley Cup Finals. He brought in food for the entire crew (including hosts Frank Buckley and Jessica Holmes) and we gave away 10 $100 Langer’s Gift Certificates by texting “Langers” to 515151(or enter at ktla.com/contests). Our sincere thanks to everyone at KTLA for hosting Norm so graciously.

David Sax of SavetheDeli.com has an interesting piece up on the merits and traditions behind hand-slicing deli meats.
At Langer’s Delicatessen, in Los Angeles–home to the greatest pastrami sandwich in America–owner Norm Langer took a blackened piece of pastrami out of the steam box, slapped it on the wooden counter, and began methodically slicing, flipping the meat over and around, excising tough connective tissue. “When you cut it on a machine, you won’t cut out this,” Norm said, removing a slimy yellow membrane with a twist of the knife. “This thing is like chewing a racquetball. It has the consistency of a diaphragm. If you cut your meat on a machine, that is going to be in your sandwich.”
