Fans of cardiac procedures should sample the restaurant's egg-dipped turkey club ($13.59), which is essentially a bunch of corned beef and turkey meat jammed between two slices of French toast. This is a hell of a sensuous sandwich.

The corned beef and pastrami? Impeccable. Sourced directly from one of New York City's few remaining classic delis, the Carnegie, each sandwich arrives filled with perfectly steamed, perfectly fat meat .... It's perfectly stacked a mile high on perfectly moist and chewy rye bread.

The Tenth Sandwich
Beautifully pink, meltingly tender, somehow lighter than the sum of its parts.
