Order the Reuben on marbled rye. Close your eyes. Take a bite. Liza Minnelli starts singing ""New York New York"" in your head. Fireworks over the Statue of Liberty flash before your eyes. Your mouth cannot believe how savory, how tender, how juicy, how succulent, how impossibly GOOD this sandwich is. Now try the pickle. Feel it snap as you crunch into its salty goodness. Your salivary glands give a squeak - MAN! That is GOOD! Now take a look at the knishes - there are many. You can't possibly pick a bad one. But you settle instead for a brownie. Wait. What just happened? You fainted from joy. Don't worry. You'll get used to it.
