The former diner, which Anthony Rose and Robert Wilder used as the forward operating base for what is now an empire of restaurants running along Dupont (Big Crow, Schmaltz Appetizing, Fat Pasha, Bar Begonia, Madame Boeuf), has reached its final form. Seeing which side their bagels are buttered on, the pair now cater to a Jewish-leaning clientele with fluffy matzo balls plunked into chicken soup, hot pastrami sandwiches worthy of any deli, flaky knishes, delicious steamies, karnatzel and the worst coleslaw I've ever had in my life. I love this place but it wouldn't be a deli if there wasn't something to complain about.
