Very serious. This is my livelihood…….and we’re exceedingly proud of our product and feel it’s the best, at least on the West Coast.

We’re originally from Brooklyn, where, in our neighborhood there was a kosher deli on just about every street corner, selling sumptuous corned beef. Out here we never found any which compared to our childhood corned beef. So, being cooks, we decided to make our own. We actually brine the raw briskets in barrels for 2 weeks, unheard of in this era of injecting an instant cure with needles, and after curing for 2 weeks, the briskets are slow cooked/steamed, and then go to a number of hotels, restaurants and Irish pubs, and GM Place. The finished product resembles Montreal smoked meat in its “dark” flavor, but is actually corned (or brined) rather than smoked.
Enough said, I don’t like “advertising” my product, but since a portion of you attend Canucks games, I thought I’d fish for some reviews.

If you’re looking for the best options for jewish deli food in Vancouver, may I suggest try the hot montreal smoked meat sandwiches at Siegel’s Bagels on Cornwall, just off the Burrard Bridge. I haven’t tried the sandwiches at GM Place, so I’ll give them a shot next time

I’m betting that hockey has the highest salary to revenue ratio. It has the least revenue of the big 4, and it’s salary cap is about the same as the NBA’s (although there are more loopholes in the NBA version). Anyway, it would make sense that players get more of the pie in hockey, because it’s a struggling sport, and teams that don’t perform in the US lose a lot of revenue because people just ignore the sport altogether (see: Chicago until 2 years ago). So there is a much higher incentive to spend the extra bucks on players, compared to a sport like football, where fans will show up no matter what, so you’ll make money whether or not you spend.
