pastrami on rye bread

On this week’s Cityscape we’re taking a bite into the history of Jewish delis in New York City with the author of a new book called Pastrami on Rye. Because pickles go well with pastrami on rye bread, we’ll pay a visit to the Pickles Guys on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, the only pickle store still on Essex Street, which was once home to a bunch of them. And we’ll top the show off with a little mustard.  We’ll talk with the current owner of A. Bauer’s Mustard, a family owned mustard company that opened in New York City in 1888. Listen here.
