Juniors has decent Pastrami (remember to order it “LEAN” or else risk a mouthful of fat). so does Factor’s Deli on Pico. Jerry’s still has my favorite Matzo Ball Soup in a restaurant, but it’s only a...

Bagel. My Bubbe's Cabbage Borscht or my Nanny’s Brisket. Roast Chicken.

it with a screen that made the Green Monster look like a picket fence, remarked, “ It's interesting, but it ain't baseball.” Asiago cheese, triple chocolate chip...I’m glad that my Bubbe didn’t live to see...
