Jewish deli near Oxford Circus.

This offers a range of sandwiches and some hot food, plus Jewish deli favourites such as chicken soup and salt beef sandwiches.

The salt beef sandwiches and tongue sandwiches (£5.95) are very good, with an enormous pile of warm, juicy meat on rye bread with mustard and pickles. In both cases, the meat is sliced to order from a large piece kept in simmering liquid, keeping it at its best. The chopped liver sandwich (£4.75) was also good (and included tasty pickles), but the price seems somewhat high for what is basically a liver paté sandwich on plain sliced bread.

Chicken soup (not tried personally) is available plain (£3.25) or adorned (£3.75) with noodles, kreplach, kneidlach or "mixed" (extra chicken, kreplach and kneidlach).

Apparently, this is part of a chain; the original establishment is in St John's Wood and appears to be the basis of the "since 1948" claim.
