What travelers say:
The jet lag party couldn't sleep at all on the first night, so I went out at 7 am. The first breakfast in New York must not be vague. I came here according to the recommendation of a friend. The two of us ordered a sandwich and were shocked by its size. I ate a belly full of meat and felt very satisfied.

The jet lag party couldn't sleep at all on the first night, so I went out at 7 am. The first breakfast in New York must not be vague. I came here according to the recommendation of a friend.

The sandwiches here are very special. This is an old shop that has been open for many years. Their sandwich burgers are not made of round bread, but two slices of sandwich with a lot of meat. You can then combine them yourself, which is quite interesting.
The most historic and authentic sandwich is the semi-self-service one. You put the meat in the bread yourself. There is a lot of meat, and it feels like one sandwich is enough to fill you up. The large restaurant is often crowded.
Located at the corner of Houston and Ludlow, the huge neon sign can be seen from afar. As a 24-hour brightly lit delicatessen, Katz is never deserted. It not only attracts tourists from all over the world, but is also a popular place for New York locals to have family gatherings. You need to get a ticket when you enter the door and go to different food areas to buy delicatessen. The most famous ones are the $20 Pastrami Sandwich and Matzo-ball soup.
Katz's Delicatessen, an American sandwich, is very retro, as if I have returned to the American movies of the last century, with the scene where the male protagonist flirts with the waitress, which is quite interesting.
A friend brought me here for dinner. He said that many Chinese people would like the food here. After entering, I found that the layout is really more oriental, but also has pure western style. It's a bit of a fusion of Chinese and Western. The food tastes great too.
