Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives

The popular show on the food network hosted by Guy Fieri showcases cool little joints around the country. Guy Fieri's enthusiasm is infectious too. A couple weeks back, the show featured Kenny & Ziggy's New York Deli here in Houston. Yesterday, we went there for lunch. It was around 1:00 PM on a Saturday afternoon, and we had a 25 minute wait to get in. It was definitely worth the wait.

Bonnie, our waitress, was charming. We each chose a classic deli-style sandwich, me a Reuben, and my wife a corned beef on rye. We each had a Dr. Brown Cream Soda for a beverage. The sandwiches were more than we could handle at a sitting, so to-go boxes were necessary afterwards. The restaurant transported us to New York in its atmosphere and ambient noise. We will definitely go back. The food & service were great!!
