Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Beloved culinary and cultural institutions, Jewish delis are wonderlands of amazing flavours and great food - bright, buttery, briny, sweet, fatty, salty, smokey...In The Jewish Deli , comics artist and deli aficionado Ben Nadler takes a deliciously entertaining deep dive into the history and culture of this food and the places that serve it up to us across the counter. A visual treat, this accessible and informative nonfiction graphic novel delivers stories of tradition and innovation, celebrations of iconic menu staples, flavour profiles, food preparations, ordering advice, spotlights on legendary and up-and-coming delis, and much more. Chapters guide readers through the details and delights of each major food category such as meat, fish, bagels and bread, schmears, soups and sides, sweets, and drinks, all delightfully illustrated and each more irresistibly craveable than the last.
Includes bibliographical references (page 246).
