They both have so much to see. 0:00:12.240 --> 0:00:17.040 You know. Their name is Obscary and broad. Here boys 0:00:17.239 --> 0:00:32.840 began toast episode three. It's the Brooking Boys Podcast, back 0:00:32.920 --> 0:00:36.240 from a two week gat case in three weeks away 0:00:36.280 --> 0:00:41.519 from all of you beautiful slices. Man, oh man, we 0:00:41.640 --> 0:00:44.960 missed you. We've been places, We've been around the world, 0:00:45.000 --> 0:00:49.840 and I I I was, I've been around my house. 0:00:49.920 --> 0:00:53.480 But that's okay. I noticed, man, your Facebook page tells 0:00:53.479 --> 0:00:56.200 all you've been around. You've been been around a lot 0:00:56.200 --> 0:00:59.960 of pizza. I see. Yeah. I I did the brook 0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:04.800 An Italian Triple, the the the the almost impossible, rare 0:01:04.880 --> 0:01:08.720 like Bigfoot, right, I did the Brooklyn Italian Triple. Now, 0:01:08.720 --> 0:01:10.400 if you're not from the area, you can be like what. 0:01:10.959 --> 0:01:14.240 But I I went to arguably the two best pizza 0:01:14.280 --> 0:01:17.440 places in our area of Brooklyn, in in that section 0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:20.880 of Brooklyn, the Italian half and well actually one of 0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:24.880 them in a in a religious Jewish half quarter. And 0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:28.959 I had the best rice ball by far in New York. 0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:31.560 I did the triple. So the first thing I did 0:01:31.640 --> 0:01:34.280 was I went to De Fara Pizza, the legendary to 0:01:34.360 --> 0:01:42.120 Fara Pizza where Dominic mcou who made every pizza by 0:01:42.160 --> 0:01:44.680 you know himself cut the basil with his own rusty 0:01:44.720 --> 0:01:48.360 scissors or old scissors, and his family is now taken 0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:52.080 over and making the pizza there. They've franchised for the locations. 0:01:52.640 --> 0:01:55.600 I went there. I'll get to that in a minute. Uh. 0:01:55.600 --> 0:01:58.680 And then I went to while I was in Brooklyn 0:01:58.720 --> 0:02:01.000 to visit somebody was a thing, you know, not not 0:02:01.040 --> 0:02:05.400 a joke, and then um, noticing where I was, I 0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:08.320 then to get on the parkway went to Joseph Avenue 0:02:08.360 --> 0:02:12.120 you which is like it's a it's a restaurant with 0:02:12.240 --> 0:02:15.360 like a countertop you can go over to food local Local. 0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:18.000 Very I don't know if if many slices even know 0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:20.840 what they served and what they're known for. A couple 0:02:20.880 --> 0:02:23.360 of things they're known for the you'll talk about the sandwich, 0:02:23.400 --> 0:02:25.600 but because I always get the name wrong in Pinell sandwich, 0:02:25.960 --> 0:02:31.079 Pelli Pinelli sandwich, the famous for peas or whatever. Yeah, 0:02:31.400 --> 0:02:33.639 I'm not a fan of that sandwich, but only because 0:02:34.160 --> 0:02:36.840 since I'm a kid. That's how long his place has 0:02:36.880 --> 0:02:39.519 been there making the same thing, same recipe. So yeah, 0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:43.839 you visited now to those places and then the Holy Grail. Yeah, 0:02:43.840 --> 0:02:45.079 well I'll get today. Let me just tell you what 0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:48.320 the rice ball special is. It's a fantastic rice ball, 0:02:48.639 --> 0:02:50.920 which is not just a rice of ball. It's a 0:02:51.000 --> 0:02:52.800 rice ball with chopped meat in the middle and a 0:02:52.840 --> 0:02:54.720 couple of peas which I'm an expert at getting out. 0:02:55.080 --> 0:02:57.480 But they put in a small place to container like 0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:00.440 a wanton soup. The half container they covered, and a 0:03:00.520 --> 0:03:03.880 delicious tomato sauce. But under the tomato sauce is a 0:03:03.880 --> 0:03:06.440 scoop of Regott the cheese, and on top of the 0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:10.040 sauce is shredded loc telly romano, which is like cheese 0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:12.720 from the heavens. And they cover the lid and it 0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:14.760 melts on top and it's and what happens is the 0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.480 sauce seeps into the rice ball and into the crust 0:03:17.520 --> 0:03:20.040 of the rice ball and it becomes almost mushy, and 0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:22.960 it's just perfection. It's almost like you're you're eating hot 0:03:23.040 --> 0:03:27.440 mush But it's the taste that it has is very unique. Yeah, 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:31.040 and you must try it. And if it sounds disgusting, 0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:34.000 you don't, you have no idea? Yeah, you have to 0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:37.960 podcast assume that you have a good to be there anyway. Yeah, 0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:40.720 and n Pinelli is is these the crushed chickpeas with 0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:44.080 it which is fried with on with with regotta, and 0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:46.320 and it's on a bun like a Hamburger bun. And 0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:50.240 it tastes just as magnificent, but again very unique taste. 0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:53.839 It's and it's a very Sicilian Italian thing. And then 0:03:53.960 --> 0:03:57.400 I continued up Avenue you made a right on stillwell 0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:01.200 end up all pon heard us talk about that one 0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:03.960 on this podcast. Now I do have a question for 0:04:04.040 --> 0:04:07.360 you about the first thing you mentioned. I got to 0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:10.000 talk about that and we have to address this. We 0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:13.160 have to address this. Let me explain. Defara Pizza rated 0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:16.359 almost every year as not only the best one or 0:04:16.360 --> 0:04:19.320 two pizzas in New York, which is saying something unless 0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:20.720 you're from Connecticut and Iowa and you want to get 0:04:20.720 --> 0:04:23.440 into that dispute, but it's also considered one of the 0:04:23.440 --> 0:04:26.320 best pizzas in America. And Dave Portnoy, the bar Stool 0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:29.600 Sports president a gave it a nine point four when 0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:31.560 he was one. Bye you know how this works, he 0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:35.600 did it. Go watch the video of him reviewing Space 0:04:35.960 --> 0:04:37.560 f A. But that's how you just to give it 0:04:37.640 --> 0:04:40.840 some levity a nine point four from that man. And 0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:43.119 by levity, I means humor. By the way, you mean weight, 0:04:43.279 --> 0:04:46.920 I meant weight, right, yeah, um to give some gravity, 0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:50.040 some gravity, right, Defara pizza traditionally, and by the way, 0:04:50.080 --> 0:04:52.280 I'm talking about the Sicilian. The round is fine, but 0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:55.239 the Sicilian is where it's at. The Sicilian is normally 0:04:55.600 --> 0:05:01.599 the perfect sauce, and the crust is blacken and chewy, 0:05:01.680 --> 0:05:03.600 and you bite it and you go, oh my god, 0:05:03.640 --> 0:05:06.160 I've never eaten anything like this. Oh it's twice big. 0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:08.440 The crust is twice big, and it's like takes like 0:05:08.520 --> 0:05:11.880 ninety minutes to do one pie. It's a long process, however. 0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:16.479 So so I'm I'm about fifteen twenty minutes away from 0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:19.719 my first from getting to the farah, and I order 0:05:19.760 --> 0:05:22.719 in the slice app come on, and I ordered the pizza. 0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:24.320 They go, we'll be ready in twenty minutes. We have 0:05:24.320 --> 0:05:26.279 a pie in the oven. I'm all right at the oven. 0:05:27.000 --> 0:05:28.880 So I get there. The places they don't they don't 0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:31.560 let you come inside anymore. They just have the window open, 0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:33.480 so the gates down over the door and you just 0:05:33.480 --> 0:05:36.080 go to the window. Now it's a typical pizza place. 0:05:36.080 --> 0:05:39.200 In New York where it's like that metal countertop and 0:05:39.240 --> 0:05:42.040 they have like a window that slides up right like 0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:44.800 it's about six ft wide, and uh, you you order 0:05:44.880 --> 0:05:46.720 under the window. So I tell give him my name. 0:05:46.760 --> 0:05:48.320 It'll be read in a little while. And it's five 0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:50.719 or six people waiting outside. They get the pizza and 0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:54.039 and none of them were ordering, like um, I ordered 0:05:54.040 --> 0:05:56.440 four slices for myself. It's like six dollars a slice, 0:05:56.440 --> 0:05:59.120 but usually worth every penny. I get the pizza about 0:05:59.120 --> 0:06:01.680 fifteen minutes later, right out of the oven. They take 0:06:01.680 --> 0:06:03.320 it out of the oven, they pull a little olive 0:06:03.560 --> 0:06:05.960 olive oil. They pour on top olive oil right and 0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:08.039 then and then the sister or the daughter or whatever. 0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:11.120 She Maggie, Yeah, I think it was Maggie. I can't 0:06:11.160 --> 0:06:14.000 swear to it. I couldn't swear it was Magi. Yeah. 0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:16.400 She she cuts up the basil with the scissors and 0:06:16.440 --> 0:06:18.200 she goes over and she sprinkles it on the pie. 0:06:18.440 --> 0:06:20.240 The guy cuts it up, puts my four slices in 0:06:20.240 --> 0:06:25.039 the box. I'm dying. God. I go to my car. 0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:30.599 I take a bite. I want want m brody terrible. 0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:36.080 The crust isn't blackened. It tastes like us five or 0:06:36.160 --> 0:06:38.880 six in terms of like it's like crust. We hate 0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:41.919 to do this because we know them. We're almost like 0:06:41.960 --> 0:06:44.280 friends of these people. Yeah, I gotta say I was 0:06:44.320 --> 0:06:47.839 gonna I was gonna call back if we're being honest. Yeah, 0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:50.800 it just it just fell short of how we know 0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:53.400 it to be. And I've heard from other people that 0:06:54.000 --> 0:06:56.640 a similar story. Bro I posted on my Facebook page 0:06:56.640 --> 0:06:58.640 because I wouldn't do it in Facebook. Is just my 0:06:58.680 --> 0:07:01.240 friends and family, right, it's not really like public like 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:03.640 the slices and everybody. I didn't want to embarrass them 0:07:03.640 --> 0:07:05.280 in public. And I just said, hey, I went to 0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:07.880 these three places. I pulled off the triple. Great, you 0:07:07.880 --> 0:07:10.080 should see how many scare you did. But a bunch 0:07:10.120 --> 0:07:12.320 of people, Hey, was how was Defaris? Was it as 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:13.840 goods it used to be? Hey, I heard it's not 0:07:13.840 --> 0:07:15.320 as good as it used to be. Hey, I went there, 0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:18.560 it's not as good. So I'm not saying that they're 0:07:18.560 --> 0:07:20.400 not as good. I'm saying because you know they had 0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:24.040 our president, they went there since Dominic, you know, passed away. 0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:27.760 I'm saying when I went, there was no consistency. It 0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:30.960 did not taste like, oh my god, defara pizza and 0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:33.200 I didn't complain, I didn't call off. I'm not gonna 0:07:33.520 --> 0:07:35.520 maybe they had a bad day. I'm not gonna not 0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:38.200 go again. I'm just saying, boy, it's like meeting your 0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:42.560 hero and they're not nice. That's how it was. And again, 0:07:42.640 --> 0:07:45.080 no disrespect. We love them. I'll still give them the 0:07:45.080 --> 0:07:47.720 benefit of the doubt. But I'm just hoping this was 0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:51.600 a bump because they never had those speed bumps ever, 0:07:51.760 --> 0:07:55.960 you know under Dominic when he was consistency. Think maybe 0:07:55.960 --> 0:07:57.560 the guy who made the pie was having a bed 0:07:57.640 --> 0:07:59.680 maybe pulled it out of the oven too soon. Maybe 0:07:59.680 --> 0:08:02.120 because I was waiting they gave me before they twice 0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:03.840 baked it and they put it back in the other 0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:06.520 I don't know now. Well, okay, so so we're gonna 0:08:06.600 --> 0:08:09.840 leave that there for now inconclusive. Is the Fairies as 0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:15.240 great as it ever was? Um? Alright, so so so so. Yeah, 0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:17.119 you did a little you did little pizza tour action. 0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:19.840 You spent some time around the neighborhood, which you were 0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:24.280 eating good in the neighborhood. Um. I decided to not 0:08:24.360 --> 0:08:27.080 spend any time in my bed at all. I spent 0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:29.760 like two nights out of the I guess the seventeen 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:32.880 consecutive eighteen consecutive days we had off. When you wrapped 0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:35.240 three weekends around it, it was two weeks and three 0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:38.840 weekends days usually, right. I spent two nights in my bed. 0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:41.719 I went from Montauk out on the east end of 0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:44.400 Long Island, past the Hampton's which used to be a 0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:47.199 sleepy old fishing town, which in the last ten years 0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:50.839 have become like you know, places where you know, it's 0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:52.720 hard to get in and they have velvet ropes and 0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:55.920 ship Yeah. The people spoiled it with being popular. Yeah. 0:08:55.960 --> 0:08:58.240 So that from there, I went all the way down 0:08:58.440 --> 0:09:00.800 to the Jersey Shore for a weekend. I did you know, 0:09:00.840 --> 0:09:03.600 I did some appearances at some of our the bars 0:09:03.600 --> 0:09:06.000 you've heard me talk about. Uh. And then and then 0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:09.280 I went up. I did a I pulled something that 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:11.679 I've never done out of my ass, and that is 0:09:11.720 --> 0:09:18.959 a trip to light Bulb. Yeah. I went up to Montreal, Connecticut, 0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:22.959 Connecticut kick Canada. Canada they call, you know, the the 0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:26.080 frozen hostile wasteland that Jim Carrey said, how did you 0:09:26.080 --> 0:09:28.840 say the country's name Canada? Is that how they say? 0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:33.560 Because I say Canada, Canada, you say Canada, Canada. Jim 0:09:33.600 --> 0:09:36.280 Carrey did a stand up once They called it a frozen, 0:09:36.280 --> 0:09:39.080 hostile wasteland. Anyway, the only town I've ever been to 0:09:39.840 --> 0:09:44.680 in Canada Toronto, Toronto, yes once, or as they say, Toronto, Brodie. 0:09:44.720 --> 0:09:46.760 I gotta tell you, I had so much fun in 0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:49.840 the three nights I went there. But I did a 0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:53.040 very unscary thing. No I didn't, because that's like the 0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:56.040 second strip club capital after Tampa. From what I hear, 0:09:56.720 --> 0:09:59.280 this was one of those things where I had three 0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:01.719 nights off that were free in the calendar, and it 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:03.719 would burning a hole in my pocket. You know, It's 0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:05.200 like I must have been killing you. I was like, 0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:07.440 I can't sit home for three nights in a row 0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:10.440 during a vacation in the summer. Am I crazy? So 0:10:10.640 --> 0:10:15.000 my boy Danny what Danny Bottles what we call Danny connections, 0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:20.360 Danny Connections, I forget his name. The Danny Connections is like, yo, 0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:23.800 I got the same time off. Let's let's flip a coin, 0:10:23.920 --> 0:10:26.800 let's do it. We were gonna it was between we 0:10:26.800 --> 0:10:29.000 we did a couple of coin tosses, okay, and we 0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:30.480 were gonna go to Key West. We're gonna go to 0:10:30.559 --> 0:10:33.480 Nantucket of all places. But we ruled out in Nantucket 0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:36.600 because we figured, yeah, you know what, that's a place 0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:39.640 that we've heard that could be for families and couples. 0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:43.280 And we maybe was a girl from there, Yeah, we 0:10:43.320 --> 0:10:47.280 know what? Was it a guy? How you want the 0:10:47.320 --> 0:10:49.880 joke to go exactly? But anyway, and I would was 0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:51.400 gonna go just so I could come back and do 0:10:51.440 --> 0:10:54.720 the joke. But anyway, we decided to skip that and 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:58.320 then Key West was the other option. Florida and Danny. 0:10:58.400 --> 0:11:00.960 Danny has never been there. I've been there once, and 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:03.000 it's a it's a nice, cool town where you just 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:06.040 put on a T shirt and and shorts and flip 0:11:06.040 --> 0:11:08.880 flops and then you could waste away again in Margaritaville. 0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:12.000 It's very casual, you know, the opposite of the Miami 0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:15.880 clubs and stuff. Flip the coin between Key West and 0:11:15.960 --> 0:11:18.240 Montreal and said, we're gonna go to one of these 0:11:18.280 --> 0:11:21.560 two places. How did Montreal get on your your possibility list? 0:11:21.760 --> 0:11:24.600 It's so nice. We we took the top five places 0:11:24.679 --> 0:11:27.920 where between those dates have the has the cheapest flights, 0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:32.040 and Montreal came Yeah, Montreal came in at one fifty 0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:35.320 five a hundred fifty five dollars to go there, and 0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:37.760 then I got another hundred something dollars to come home. 0:11:38.000 --> 0:11:41.080 It literally was under four hundred bucks, like three fifty 0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:43.400 or something like that, three seventy five to fly, so 0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:45.560 it made it very attractive. Key West was in that 0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:47.559 category too, because we wanted to fly during the week. 0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:51.160 Keep in mind, Brodie, I'm going this is a situation 0:11:51.240 --> 0:11:57.600 where where Montreal is one hour away from New York. 0:11:57.640 --> 0:11:59.160 I didn't know it was a one hour flight from 0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:01.760 the New York the three New York airports, and with 0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:07.079 with uh literally ten daily NonStop flights a day from 0:12:07.080 --> 0:12:09.640 all three major New York airports, it was a very 0:12:09.679 --> 0:12:13.600 attractive thing. So we flipped a coin heads was Montreal, 0:12:13.679 --> 0:12:17.560 tails was key West, and flipped it. It landed on 0:12:17.640 --> 0:12:21.360 heads Montreal's. It was. This was nine o'clock at night. 0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:24.920 I then went online to book the flight. I didn't 0:12:24.920 --> 0:12:28.720 booked my hotel till midnight, and then eight in the 0:12:28.760 --> 0:12:31.840 morning I was I was already packing my bag at midnight. 0:12:31.960 --> 0:12:34.560 All right, here we go on on my way to 0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:37.000 the airport at eight eight o'clock. Flight was six o'clock 0:12:37.000 --> 0:12:39.480 in the morning. On my way to the airport. I'm starting, said, oh, 0:12:39.520 --> 0:12:41.840 we need dinner tonight. I don't know, we started booking dinners. 0:12:42.120 --> 0:12:45.600 So we literally started booking dinners the day of and 0:12:45.679 --> 0:12:48.160 the hotel was booked with like seven eight hours to go. 0:12:48.480 --> 0:12:51.520 It was the most insane turnover I think I've ever done. 0:12:52.000 --> 0:12:53.720 And you know me, I like to like plan things 0:12:53.720 --> 0:12:56.000 out a little bit more, but to just just stop 0:12:56.040 --> 0:12:58.200 on the dime. You know, you know somebody at at 0:12:58.240 --> 0:13:01.480 a at a resort chain, you know, somebody at the 0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:04.800 at the in the club in town. This was did 0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:07.520 Danny know anyone in Montreal? Ready? This was ready? Fire 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:12.040 aim or fire aim ready? This was literally yeah, So 0:13:12.120 --> 0:13:15.200 we didn't. So we pieced it together with I threw 0:13:15.200 --> 0:13:18.520 out on on on social media, Hey this is my 0:13:18.559 --> 0:13:20.920 first time here. What should I do? Where should I go? 0:13:21.240 --> 0:13:24.199 So I thank you slices. A few of you, uh 0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:27.080 and I a few of you slices came up with 0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:29.640 some great things for me to do, and and so 0:13:29.760 --> 0:13:34.240 thank you. I appreciate you immensely for for like giving 0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:37.959 me guiding me in the right direction. Because between that 0:13:38.040 --> 0:13:42.320 and some professional, you know, critical lists, I pieced my 0:13:42.400 --> 0:13:45.680 way through and Danny, of course knows a guy who 0:13:45.679 --> 0:13:49.480 knows a guy connected him to someone who literally became 0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:52.240 our savior, like the guy who knew every club owner 0:13:52.280 --> 0:13:55.560 in in Montreal. So we ended up on every list 0:13:55.720 --> 0:14:00.160 in town that we needed to Yeah, um and and 0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:01.720 and those surprise, and I we gotta take a quick 0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:04.600 break here, and it leads me to where I wanted. 0:14:04.640 --> 0:14:07.600 I wanted to stop off for a minute, because Brody, 0:14:08.200 --> 0:14:11.120 if I talk about nothing else, I want to explain 0:14:11.160 --> 0:14:16.960 to you why the Montreal bagel is better than New 0:14:17.080 --> 0:14:19.440 York City bagel. Okay, alright, go to commercial now, because 0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:26.560 I'm gonna get very upset. We are moving a little 0:14:26.560 --> 0:14:29.160 bit fast today because uh, we have some stuff we 0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:32.280 gotta take care of you after the podcast. Anyway, So, 0:14:32.880 --> 0:14:36.360 unbeknownst to me, Brodie, there is a huge bagel war 0:14:36.720 --> 0:14:41.320 going on in Montreal. They have some amazing they have 0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:44.440 some amazing deli food. They first of all, this place 0:14:44.480 --> 0:14:47.800 a large amount of Jewish place. There's a place called Schwartzes, 0:14:48.200 --> 0:14:51.400 which I swear to God mimics cats is deli home 0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:54.040 of the corn beef on rye with mustard. The line 0:14:54.280 --> 0:14:57.960 at Schwartzes wraps around the block and you wait for 0:14:58.000 --> 0:14:59.600 ever it again and it's a jew. They call it 0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:02.760 a heat rue delicatestine over there. So so places like 0:15:02.840 --> 0:15:05.600 that were like, look, we have three nights here, we 0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:08.640 got bucket lit list items and Danny Danny Connections was 0:15:08.680 --> 0:15:11.720 on board. He all our days were filled with food 0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:15.520 and literally going from places that Anthony Bourdine went when 0:15:15.560 --> 0:15:17.760 he was alive and he did that show like like 0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:20.680 it was like that. So we were going fast, fast, fast, 0:15:21.160 --> 0:15:25.120 eating more than we probably should have. So the first 0:15:25.160 --> 0:15:27.040 thing that happens is we you know, obviously we go 0:15:27.080 --> 0:15:29.440 to Schwartz Is then we go to a place called 0:15:30.120 --> 0:15:34.480 Lynette's Lenetsky Light Lunch. Lenetsky Light Lunch was formed in 0:15:34.520 --> 0:15:37.400 like the nineteen early nineteen hundreds. You walk in, you 0:15:37.480 --> 0:15:40.640 feel like you're in the early nineteen hundreds. They would 0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:44.560 have these they torturing people. Dude, the way that it 0:15:44.640 --> 0:15:46.800 was painted, and the whole place looked like like like 0:15:46.840 --> 0:15:49.760 it looked like a general like a like a candy store. 0:15:49.880 --> 0:15:53.320 This when you ordered a coke or cherry coke, it 0:15:53.400 --> 0:15:56.400 came from the fountain they do. They do homemade. They 0:15:56.400 --> 0:15:58.800 have that little thing that you pull the the lever 0:15:59.040 --> 0:16:01.120 and then you put it in an nice glass and 0:16:01.160 --> 0:16:04.360 they add the cherry syrup to it and they make 0:16:04.400 --> 0:16:07.040 the whole thing like an old fashioned are you're trying 0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:10.280 to describe a tap tap like a beer tap, yeah, 0:16:10.280 --> 0:16:13.600 but yeah, but yeah, a soda tap and a soda 0:16:13.680 --> 0:16:16.960 jerk like literally and but but the only thing you 0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:19.160 can get was and this is the weird part party 0:16:19.200 --> 0:16:25.120 and this is where you you'll fight with me on that. Okay, okay, 0:16:25.160 --> 0:16:28.720 I'm getting there. So it's a an all beef hot 0:16:28.760 --> 0:16:35.120 salami oh with with yellow they yellow mustard. Hold on there, 0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:37.000 they're a fan of yellow mustard up there. They don't 0:16:37.000 --> 0:16:40.080 have like that deli mud yellow mustard and your choice 0:16:40.080 --> 0:16:44.360 of three cheeses on a very flat bun. Okay, and 0:16:44.360 --> 0:16:46.880 then that isnte. This is what Lenetsky's has done. It's 0:16:46.880 --> 0:16:48.960 like four dollars. It's like it's it's really cheap and 0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:50.920 it's very light and it's only put like two or 0:16:50.920 --> 0:16:53.680 three pieces in it of the salami. And then so 0:16:53.880 --> 0:16:56.960 the people behind the counter are very our family owned 0:16:56.960 --> 0:16:59.360 and operated. And there's a sign up and it says, 0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:02.000 wait a minut, the family is owned and operated. The 0:17:02.040 --> 0:17:06.679 places owned, but family owned and operated. It's it's this 0:17:06.760 --> 0:17:09.240 is hot salami, hot beef salami. If you know what 0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:13.080 I'm saying. My favorite movie. Here's here's the weird part. 0:17:13.200 --> 0:17:15.159 The sign is up and it says, look, obviously we 0:17:15.200 --> 0:17:17.679 only accept cash here. We have some rules. We do 0:17:17.760 --> 0:17:20.680 not cut sandwiches in half because they're first of all, 0:17:20.840 --> 0:17:23.200 they're small enough as it is. They refuse to cut 0:17:23.200 --> 0:17:26.760 it in half. And it says, we refuse to not 0:17:27.000 --> 0:17:31.119 put yellow mustard on it. Don't don't ask. They said, 0:17:31.359 --> 0:17:35.719 don't ask. That's just how it is. Don't mess with tradition. Nope. 0:17:36.400 --> 0:17:38.760 Now hold on a second. This is and I can't 0:17:38.800 --> 0:17:42.480 understand this. Okay, I get it. If you went to 0:17:42.560 --> 0:17:44.840 Louise lunch, we're gonna go back to New Haven, Connecticut 0:17:44.840 --> 0:17:46.959 from hamburger on the white bread. It was a handburger 0:17:47.000 --> 0:17:49.840 on white bread, and they will put extra condiments on 0:17:49.880 --> 0:17:52.919 it because they won't add things to a sandwich. Okay, right, 0:17:52.960 --> 0:17:55.960 it's a conveyor belt and they're like, look, we're not 0:17:56.000 --> 0:17:58.800 gonna add things. I understand places that have tradition and 0:17:58.800 --> 0:18:00.560 they don't want to. They don't have these actually, but 0:18:00.560 --> 0:18:03.360 you're gonna you not put something off. That's right, it's right. 0:18:03.520 --> 0:18:06.679 You could stop yourself. You could put the salami on 0:18:06.720 --> 0:18:10.200 the bum cheese on the bottom, and no, no, they're 0:18:10.240 --> 0:18:13.000 doing it. No, no, they're doing it in fucking front 0:18:13.080 --> 0:18:16.200 of you. That's a problem. They're taking the salami off 0:18:16.240 --> 0:18:20.280 the grill, they're put the cheese. It's another thing to two. 0:18:20.359 --> 0:18:23.920 Then stop not being able to stop yourself from picking 0:18:23.960 --> 0:18:26.360 up the mustard bottle and squirting mustard on it. See, 0:18:26.400 --> 0:18:28.680 that's that's where That's where I whip out the I'm 0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:31.879 allergic to mustard seed. I could die. That's where I 0:18:31.920 --> 0:18:34.240 whip that out. That's why I tell them that I 0:18:34.240 --> 0:18:36.639 have a rare disorder and if I don't have catchup 0:18:36.640 --> 0:18:39.000 on my salami, I could die. Well, me and my 0:18:39.040 --> 0:18:42.200 but we obviously we had Danny and I Danny connections, 0:18:42.200 --> 0:18:45.320 and I we both had to get our own sandwiches 0:18:45.320 --> 0:18:47.680 because they wouldn't cut it in half. So we got 0:18:47.680 --> 0:18:50.280 our own and I could have ripped it with my fingers, Sampe. 0:18:51.080 --> 0:18:53.359 They don't give you condiments like that. They don't give 0:18:53.400 --> 0:18:56.440 you like forks. They've knives, They don't give you anything. 0:18:56.920 --> 0:18:59.600 This place of it opens this. I get that. I 0:18:59.600 --> 0:19:03.160 get that. But the thing is they are so hell 0:19:03.280 --> 0:19:07.280 bent on I get it cash only, no extras. This 0:19:07.320 --> 0:19:09.760 is tradition. We want you to experience it just the 0:19:09.760 --> 0:19:12.480 way they did in the nineteen hundred, say Philadelphia, it's 0:19:12.520 --> 0:19:14.199 like you go for a cheese, take it's went without 0:19:14.280 --> 0:19:16.159 like give me cheese, no cheese. They got an option 0:19:16.359 --> 0:19:17.880 and they give you. They do give you the three 0:19:17.920 --> 0:19:20.240 options to cheese. You what, Mutchell, you want American or 0:19:20.320 --> 0:19:23.840 you want it's Swiss. But I swear to you Brodie 0:19:24.800 --> 0:19:28.080 cheese options. But not a mustard, Danny, Danny said. Danny said, 0:19:28.119 --> 0:19:30.080 well I don't. First of all, I like mustard, so 0:19:30.119 --> 0:19:32.240 I didn't care. Danny's like, oh no, no no, no mustard 0:19:32.320 --> 0:19:35.240 on mine. And like all three people behind the counter 0:19:35.359 --> 0:19:37.080 like it looks like they look like they see they 0:19:37.119 --> 0:19:40.440 go yes, signed yes. And then the guy with the 0:19:40.520 --> 0:19:46.119 spatula points up at the sign with the spatula and 0:19:46.200 --> 0:19:48.399 he goes and there it is is a picture of 0:19:48.440 --> 0:19:50.480 a mustard bottle with a face on it, and it 0:19:50.600 --> 0:19:53.080 said that was That was where it said, don't mess 0:19:53.119 --> 0:19:56.719 with tradition. We will every single sandwhich comes with mustard, 0:19:56.720 --> 0:19:59.040 whether you like it or not. So so there it 0:19:59.200 --> 0:20:03.879 was the guy mustard you mustard you all everyone gets mustard. 0:20:04.040 --> 0:20:07.720 You get mustard, you get mustard. But it's the most asinine. 0:20:08.480 --> 0:20:10.679 It's the most asinine rule I've heard in my life, 0:20:10.920 --> 0:20:13.080 because we saw them pull the salami off the grill 0:20:13.160 --> 0:20:15.080 and with this bachelor put it in the bun, he 0:20:15.160 --> 0:20:17.000 put the cheese on it, and then he has to 0:20:17.040 --> 0:20:20.280 walk over to the mustard bottle. Now, why can't the 0:20:20.280 --> 0:20:22.359 guy be a nice guy and just hand fucking Danny 0:20:22.440 --> 0:20:24.119 his sandwich? What the hell does he have to go 0:20:24.200 --> 0:20:26.960 bloop and then close it up and handed him like 0:20:27.000 --> 0:20:30.239 that ice cream place. I told you that wouldn't put 0:20:30.240 --> 0:20:32.639 two scoops, two different flavors in a cup. But this 0:20:32.720 --> 0:20:35.840 is different, all right, just right, right, right? Yes, and no, 0:20:35.920 --> 0:20:38.760 actually it's similar because it's like, what what difference does 0:20:38.800 --> 0:20:41.120 it make if I dipped my hand in the chocolate 0:20:41.200 --> 0:20:43.960 versus the strawberry. Well, they didn't want pete, They didn't 0:20:43.960 --> 0:20:45.240 want the kids to have to go from like one 0:20:45.320 --> 0:20:47.119
