​

Katz's Delicatessen

feat. Joyce

​

In this episode of Fine Dining: The Search for the Most Mediocre Restaurant in America:

​

â—‹ Part 1: Michael's girlfriend Joyce joins Michael in New York City, and they dive deep into the history of the world-famous deli that's over 100 years old in this episode of Eat Deets

â—‹ Katz's Delicatessen has been a staple of New York culture, amplified by its appearance in several movies and TV shows, most notably When Harry Met Sally

â—‹ Current owner Jake Dell has rules for how to conduct oneself at Katz's to avoid being thrown out

â—‹ Michael & Joyce address their anxiety over the intimidatingly complicated ordering process

â—‹ A truly hot take in Yelp from Strangers as someone knocks Katz's for being too far away from where they were coming from...

â—‹ Part 2: A hectic atmosphere, a hunky meat carver, and the matzo ball soup Joyce has waited her entire life to try

â—‹ Katz's Delicatessen has so many lines and ordering stations that the chaos proves challenging to our duo

â—‹ Killer Mike walks by the table

â—‹ What's Going On Over There with the segration of those paying via card vs. those paying with cash?

○ Harrison Augustine 💸 Arrylius XIV laments that Katz's doesn't have a register that accepts gold bars

â—‹ A review of the pastrami on rye, Katz's hot dog with mustard & sauerkraut, matzo ball soup, and chocolate babka! Plus the worst hot dog in New York (it's not Katz's...)

â—‹ Did Katz's hold an orgasm contest??

â—‹ JUB is in yet another post-credits scene
