The oldest delicatessen in New York City (established 1888), Katz's is also the only place in town that still carves all its pastrami and corned beef by hand—and it makes a huge difference. It doesn't hurt that these products are the best available, as are the frankfurters, knockwurst, knishes and other Jewish deli staples. The ritual of interacting with the countermen is one of the great New York experiences. One table in the middle of the dining room bears an inconspicuous paper sign taped to its surface: "You are sitting at the table where Harry met Sally."

Go to Noo Yawk without getting a Katz's pastrami sandwich? SHAME ON YOU!

Signs from the forties still hang there: "Send a salami to your boy in the Army." Of course, it's the site of that famous "When Harry Met Sally" orgasm scene, too.

Get the three meat platter, it is soooo good. My favourite is the corned beef but they are all delicious! I also love the knishes here. A truly original NY experience.

One of the most famous Delis in NYC... You can see it in many movies but the unforgettable scene is the orgasm one in "When Harry Met Sally...". Have a Pastrami
