Deli Man

Overview

Jewish culture reflects the heart of a vital ethnic history. As that culture continues to shift and adapt alongside mainstream America, delicatessen food– as its name suggests – remains a beloved communal delicacy. In Houston, Texas, third-generation deli man David Ziggy Gruber has built arguably the finest delicatessen restaurant in the U.S. His story – augmented by the stories of iconic delis such as Katz’s, 2nd Avenue Deli, Nate ‘n Al,Carnegie, and the Stage – embodies a tradition indelibly linked to its savory, nostalgic foods.
