Just spoke with yet another Jewish couple from New York who met each other at the deli. 

So I got to ask, what is up with New York Jews and finding love at delis? You almost get the sense that nothing is as romantic as pastrami on rye with a big slather of mustard.

And how does this even work? Do you just look at someone you’re interested in and ask, “May I buy you some matzah ball soup?” 

 @Chris Trottier law of large numbers 

 @Chris Trottier a good deli is definitely a social center, so at a guess many of these couples saw each other several times before one asked the other out.
