a little out of the way
2nd avenue deli is looking at opening another restaurant at 75th and 1st. (Early 2011?).
Try the Corn Rye at Orwashers Bakery on 78th Street. (1st and 2nd Ave)
Sables has IMHO the best smokes fish in NYC. Kenny runs a great place. But
for a Corned Beef, Pastrami, or Corned Beef/Pastrami in Manhattan, stay with Carnegie Deli
