In Lieu of Carnegie Deli closing…Try Miscelanea’s Latin Themed Sandwiches

The historic Carnegie Deli on 55^th Street & 7^th Avenue will be closing its doors for good on Dec 31^st of this year. The deli that’s in close proximity to the famous Carnegie Hall, first opened in 1937, serving Jewish-style sandwiches and cheesecake that could rival that of Junior’s in downtown Brooklyn. Some of Carnegie’s most popular sandwiches, which can be as high as 4-inches tall, are:

• The Woody Allen: corned beef AND hot pastrami
• Carnegie Hall Corned Beef
• Carnegie Hall Hot Pastrami
• Carnegie Hall Brisket
• Open-faced sandwich beefamania: Hot roast beef with gravy & potato

With the laundry list of reasons for its closure, regulars having been considering where to go next; we have a recommendation for you…with a Latin twist!!  Miscelanea NY, down in the Bowery. Miscelanea serves variations of the Mexican torta, such as:

• Jamon con Queso Oaxaca: sliced ham, Oaxaca cheese, avocado, refried beans, tomato, lettuce, red onion & crema fresca
• Carnitas: pulled pork, avocado, refried beans, green salsa, red onion & cilantro
• Queso Fresco: queso fresco, avocado, tomato, refried beans, lettuce & chipotle mayo
• Temi: queso Oaxaca, scrambled eggs, avocado & chipotle mayo

Miscelanea NY may be more of your cup of café if you’d rather try a towering sandwich just to say that you have. Other novelties are available for purchase, such as the household staple Abuelita hot chocolate mix and “Make America Mexico Again” baseball caps to match the painting right outside the sandwich shop, located at 63 East 4^th Street, between Cooper Sq & Bowery. Enjoy!!
