It’s Time for Super Bowl Eats at Benjies Deli!

With a little less than a week left until the Super Bowl Sunday, you know Benjies Deli is gearing up and getting excited!  Last week’s games were absolutely unbelievable—49ers were so close to going to the Super Bowl, but those fumbles by Kyle Williams really set them back. It was a great run for the 49ers though, and a fantastic season. Can you imagine what a game that would have been, the 49ers versus the Ravens?! Anyway, we digress…

So they meet again, the New York Giants and the New England Patriots, face-to-face since that epic matchup in 2008 where the Giants upset the undefeated Pats. (more…)

Let’s Talk Turkey–Turkey Pastrami, That Is!

Turkey pastrami!

Let’s face it—everyone loves a pastrami sandwich. Yes, even vegetarians and vegans, who seem to have a Reuben or a “pastrami” sandwich on every restaurant menu!

And why not? Pastrami has a delicious, savory flavor profile that makes it perfect for sandwiches. And you know how skyscraper-high Benjies Deli packs their sandwiches. But what about those who aren’t vegetarian, but can’t handle beef? What about those who are watching their weight, and need a leaner meat than beef in their sandwich, but don’t want to sacrifice taste? (more…)

Deli platters!

In Orange County, it can be hard to find a good venue for a small party. But Benjies Deli has the answer—the Bamboo Lounge can be hired out for parties of up to 40 people. And it’s just in time for….Halloween! What a great place to get your friends together for a costume party on or around Halloween.

With six televisions and a fully stocked bar, the Bamboo Lounge is great for entertainment, and especially for a private party to celebrate the big game. For the 2010 Superbowl, The Bamboo Lounge was packed full of football fans, all booked by one of Benjies Deli’s regulars. But why wait until the Superbowl? Benjies Deli has the NFL Sunday Ticket playing in the Bamboo Lounge all the time. Is your favorite team playing soon? Get the gang together and watch it at Benjies Deli! We’ll bring our delicious, mile-high-stacked sandwiches and ice cold beers right to your table, so you and your friends don’t have to miss a minute of the game.

What everyone loves about Benjies Deli is the food, and you can definitely get everything from the menu over in the Bamboo Lounge. But remember, Benjies Deli also does delicious deli platters and sandwich trays, which are perfect for sporting events or informal parties. The Reuben is a firm favorite with Benjies’ die-hard fans, as is the Benjie’s Special. But why not try the meatball sandwich—a French roll stuffed with meatballs, provolone cheese and topped with rich marinara sauce and served with coleslaw. Not manly enough for you? Try these bellybusters: the BBQ beef or ham sandwich, piled high with thinly sliced beef or ham, smothered in our delicious barbecue sauce all on a French roll; our hot meatloaf sandwich, an open-faced sandwich of thick slabs of meatloaf and mashed potatoes smothered in savory brown gravy.

Feel like hot dogs while you’re watching the game, for that stadium feel? We got Coney Island Hot Dogs, plain or doused in chili and cheese.  Plus we have the best pastrami sandwiches in Orange County. If that wasn’t enough, the chefs are also happy to work with you to put together a menu just for your event.

For more information about the Bamboo Lounge and how to book it for your next party, call owner Lloyd Weinstein on (714) 541-6263. Or you can shoot them a message on Facebook—become a fan of Benjies Deli today, and follow them on Twitter!

An Ode the Reuben Sandwich: Noriko’s Favorite

Reuben, whoever you are, we thank you.

Although Noriko is Japanese, Lloyd Weinstein’s wife and mother to their three children bought into the whole Jewish family when they got married back in 1967. What’s her favorite treat at Benjies Deli? That would have to be the Reuben sandwich.

And what’s not to love? Tender layers of corned beef smothered in sauerkraut, Swiss cheese and Russian dressing captured between two slices of the freshest rye bread. Then it gets toasted on the grill til the outside is nice and crispy, and the inside is hot and dripping with goodness. Is anyone else hungry yet? (more…)
