Katz's Deli to Take Its Iconic Pastrami on Tour

Pastrami-deprived citizens of America—we bear joyous news. While New Yorkers are spoiled by close proximity to Katz's Delicatessen, much of the country is left without easy access to high-quality deli meats, knishes, hot dogs, and matzo ball soup. But thanks to a new tour (yes, meats can go on tour), Katz's is spreading its reach. To celebrate joining Uber Eats, Katz's Deli is kicking off a cross-country tour on August 22, traveling to Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, and Miami.
