Deli Heaven Weekender Box

You don’t need to take a trip to Houston to experience Kenny & Ziggy’s Deli Heaven Weekend! This New York-style deli spread is the ultimate sampling of all their greatest hits, complete with enough mouth-watering pastrami, corned beef, roasted turkey, and fresh rye to make 10 hearty sandwiches –– and don’t forget the deli mustard, pickles, and Russian dressing! As an extra bonus, it also includes a full-size plain cheesecake and three NYC pushcart-style soft pretzels!

From a third-generation New York Deli owner, Kenny & Ziggy’s is not only the top deli in Texas but also one of the best delis in America. In the early 1900s, Max Gruber (Ziggy’s grandfather) left Budapest, Hungary, on a bicycle. He pedaled his way across Europe to the Atlantic coast and eventually sailed for the United States, ending up on New York’s Lower East Side. In 1927, he and his brothers-in-law Morris and Izzy Rappaport opened the first Jewish deli on Broadway! Generations later, Houston businessman Lenny Friedman convinced Ziggy Gruber, who ran successful Jewish delis in New York and Los Angeles, that Houston needed an authentic deli of its own. The rest is delicious history.
