| Can you imagine eating a full portion of beef n' latkes?! |
We're currently in Palm Springs, California, home to about 487,000 people and a lot of delicatessens that serve both smoked meats and sinful desserts.
Last night we went to one called Sherman's, named after Sherman Harris. It opened in 1963 and is still very popular.
As smoked meats are a rarity in Hong Kong, it was a nice surprise to be able to eat it here! The menu had so many items featuring corned beef, pastrami, chicken soup with the option of matzo ball, chopped liver, and meat loaf!
One interesting dish that caught my attention -- beef n' latkes -- which is corned beef or pastrami in between not bread, but two potato latkes!
I had forgotten American portions were huge and was overwhelmed when it arrived! The only way to eat it of course was with a fork and knife.
A great combo -- better than having bread, as the latkes added more flavour (and oil), and complemented the corned beef flavour!
Needless to say I could only manage half of it!
