Join us for a celebration of a great Jewish-American tradition. From Attman’s in Baltimore—a resolutely traditional deli—to the whimsically named Call Your Mother in DC, which bills itself as a “Jew-ish” deli, you’ll experience the full spectrum of takes on this classic concept. We’ll journey back to Baltimore’s famous “Corned Beef Row” and explore what these delis meant to a burgeoning Jewish community. Originally places for Jews from Central and Eastern Europe to eat and meet, these delis expanded across the American landscape, eventually attracting as many non-Jews as Jews. Today, while the number of Jewish delis has shrunk dramatically, many survivors have adapted to changing times, sometimes in ways their forebears might not recognize or appreciate. Add some light Kosher and Yiddish context, along with a can of Dr. Brown’s Cel-Ray celery soda, and you’ll discover that Jewish Delis: Something to Kvell About! is a tasty adventure you won’t be able to resist.
