Traditional Jewish deli with all the breads and strange, over-processed (yet, somehow delicious) mystery meats you'd expect from something like that.

My first night there, I drank Belgian beer, Australian wine, ate gourmet cheeses from mysterious animals, listened to a white man sing the blues, danced with a hound-dog, and flirted up a pair of beautiful women.
