The Salami Cutters of Washington Heights - Nelson's Kosher Delicatessen & Restaurant: A Collection of True and Somewhat Embellished Stories of the Family Business (English Edition)

"A neighborhood mainstay of old New York, Nelson’s Restaurant was a kosher deli that was in my family for over seventy years. Anchored on the busy corner of 170th Street and Broadway in Washington Heights, New York, the store was conceived by my father Morris and his brother Al, who set sail from Russia at the dawn of a new century with a boatload of relatives and a dream. They all had great cooking skills, big personalities, commitment to quality, absolutely no idea how to run a business, and complete faith that they could make it a success! I call them the Salami Cutters.

This book is a collection of humorous stories spanning three generations, taking you around the old Washington Heights neighborhood, and behind the counter to experience the daily bustle of the life of the Salami Cutters. You will also find secret family recipes and colorful anecdotes about family, friends, staff, customers, and crazy New Yorkers who left their indelible mark. So how did this come about? Having shared stories about the store for decades, I was encouraged by family and friends to write a book! Not knowing anything about writing, and even less about publishing, of course I jumped right in. After all, you would expect nothing less from a true Salami Cutter."
