Katz Deli

Headed down to Katz on Houston and Lowell for some Matzoh ball soup. I sort of crave that when I'm not feeling well. I love the chicken soup at Zabar's and their Matzoh balls are good but a little too fluffy. Katz's are perfect but their broth is too dark, more like a beef broth. But damn, those Matzohs are great. I also got a potato knish, square, and a round sweet potato one. The round ones are HUGE and personally I like the crusty bottom on the square better. Both were so big I took them home as leftovers. The also serve pickles - crisp cucumbery ones and the soggier dill ones, along with pickled tomatoes - I like the crisp ones. I sort of miss the cole slaw that is typical at other delis like Arnie's. So NYC still has all the great food. I need to remember that when I get all grumpy. I'll blame the bitchiness lately on the phlegm and such. Yeah, NYC. And Houston Street really if fabulous.
