After taking a wrong turn somewhere while heading back from the Tree Farm, I found that the fastest route home would involve a trip up 8 Mile. Just before reaching Telegraph I was surprised to pass a Bread Basket Deli, and it was open! I’ve wanted some Sy Ginsberg Corned Beef, one of Detroit’s finest products, for a while now so I very quickly doubled back and ordered a corned beef and swiss on rye and some cream soda.
What I received is exactly what you see above, a giant and wonderful tasting corned beef sandwich with both old and new pickles. I’m currently eating it, but with a glass of Arcadia’s Angler’s Ale instead of the Dr. Brown’s Cream Soda. I’m a bit disappointed because the Dr. Brown’s now contains high-fructose corn syrup. I was not aware of this earlier, otherwise I wouldn’t have purchased it. Oh well; the sandwich is outstanding. This is the kind of food that makes me want to utter profanities while eating because it’s just simply that good.
If you’re interested, here is a photo of the outside of the deli, along with my bike on the car.
