StreetLevel: A Katz's for Brooklyn on 4th Avenue?
A new deli opening on 4th Avenue and Bergen Street is aiming to be Brooklyn’s answer to one of the city’s great delis. “We’ll have bagels and coffee, but we’re also going to have things like hot pastrami,” one of the owners of Canteen, which is scheduled to open on Monday, told us. “We’d like…
A new deli opening on 4th Avenue and Bergen Street is aiming to be Brooklyn’s answer to one of the city’s great delis. “We’ll have bagels and coffee, but we’re also going to have things like hot pastrami,” one of the owners of Canteen, which is scheduled to open on Monday, told us. “We’d like to be a Katz’s for Brooklyn.” Although it remains to be seen whether they’ll achieve their lofty goal, the gleaming renovation of the space (see photo on jump) is certainly an improvement on the poky interior of the bodega that preceded. Think you’ll give ’em a shot? GMAP
where are you getting the boar’s head from??
typical assumption by uninformed commenters, or actual knowledge?
I want a nearby place to get this stuff. So sue me. And don’t go dissing Russ and Daughter. It is expensive but the smoked fish is excellent. Ess-a-Bagel is great as well and cheaper.
I don’t have much faith in a place called Canteen. For good deli, as close to Katz’s in Brooklyn you’re going to get, go to Mill Basin Deli. Real kosher deli.
The east (or south, depending how you look at it) side of 4th ave is park slope. The other side is Boerum hill or gowanus.
This deli is serving Boars Head and claiming they are the Katz’s of Brooklyn? Hah.
wtf is boreum hill then.
wouldnt the other side of 4th across from the park slope side be boreum hill.
I dont even thing 4th ave is park slope for that matter.
Two words:
Boars Head
(oh and at 2x the price of the bodegas)
the deli on 5th and berkeley is my favorite in the neighborhood.
so clean and bright, too!
4th and bergen, boreum hill, 10:40?
don’t think so.
this is in park slope.
