About

The origin of this New York classic is uncertain, but many agree that this savoury sandwich was first served in Reuben’s Deli on East 58th Street. Traditionally it is made with cured beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut and Russian dressing, served between two slices of rye bread. Our version features cheddar and pastrami, which can be substituted for smoked ham, if preferred, or left out altogether for a vegetarian version.
