Delicious!

This weekend looks like an Indian Summer has arrived, and perfect weather for a football party! Call your friends over for the NFL games on your big screen, but don’t forget to call Benjies Deli to cater the party so you don’t have to lift a finger.

Are your friends ready-made sandwich types, or do they like to build their own creation, Dagwood style? Either way, Benjies has the deli platter for you. Starting with the ready-made—why go to Subway when you can get wonderful sandwiches made in a New York deli, even when you’re in California? Subway can’t touch the superior quality or flavor of our ingredients. We love our 16″ sandwich that’s made on a ring-shaped sesame French roll, filled with thinly sliced turkey and Black Forest ham, provolone cheese, shredded lettuce, tomatoes, onions, bell pepper, oil and vinegar, mustard and mayonnaise. Of course, we can add or subtract any of those ingredients to make a perfectly customized sandwich for you and your friends. It serves 10-12 normal people, so if your friends have big appetites, order accordingly. If your friends will be so focused on the game that they can’t even be bothered to cut off a sandwich, get the Sandwich Platter, where we make a selection of sandwiches from your choice of deli meats and cheeses or egg, tuna or chicken salads. This platter also comes with coleslaw, potato salad, pickles and condiments.

For the build-their-own bunch, we’ve got a huge selection. The Cold Cut Buffet lives up to its name with your choice of four of the following: corned beef, roast beef, pastrami, turkey pastrami, turkey, ham or salami; a choice of two cheeses; side dishes of coleslaw, potato salad and pickles; relishes and condiments; and finally, rolls and breads to start construction of the perfect sandwich. For something more simple, we have our platters of chopped liver, egg salad, chicken salad or tuna salad, all served with rye bread—the liver comes with sliced onions, in true deli style. For those in a fishy mood, we’ve got a Smoked Fish Platter and the Lox Platter. The Smoked Fish Platter is piled with lox, whitefish, barbecue cod and creamed herring with cream cheese, Greek olives, sliced tomatoes, red onions and assorted bagels for a wonderful selection of flavors. For those who just like the lox, no problem. The Lox Platter is all lox, with the appropriate complements of red onions, cream cheese and tomatoes, with Greek olives and sliced, assorted bagels to spread it all on.

Looking for more finger food? We’ve got that too. From deviled eggs to salami cornucopias, from chicken fingers to egg rolls, we got you covered. Covered, you say? In sauce? Yep, we’ve got hot wings in spicy sauce, plus meatballs in your choice of barbecue or Swedish-style sauce. What about for those dainty guests? We have the Cubed Salami and Cheese Tidbit Tray or the Cocktail Sandwich Platter for those with a smaller appetite.

And don’t forget, if your team is not playing on regular TV channels, we’ve got it down at Benjies. Where do you go to watch NFL Sunday Ticket in Orange County? Benjies’ Bamboo Lounge! See the listings of the games playing this weekend below.

Give Benjies Deli at least 36 hours to put your order together, so please plan before you call. We love catering parties and events, so please keep us in mind for your next party, whether it’s at your home or another venue. Call Lloyd or Noriko Weinstein on (714) 541-6263 to place your order, and you can find our entire catering menu online here.

As the Angels continue their fairly unimpressive 2010 season, we can start to look forward to the upcoming football season. Preseason NFL starts August 8th so make Benjies Bamboo Lounge the spot to watch the game. You don’t have to get in a argument with your wife about buying the NFL Sunday Ticket channel, Benjies already has it. With six big screen TVs in the Bamboo Lounge come watch your favorite team play with your friends.

Also we can’t give up on the Angels’ season just yet. They still have a few more months to redeem themselves as they have in past seasons. This Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday come down to the Bamboo Lounge and watch the Angels play the struggling Boston Red Sox. Baseball fans love their hot dogs, and Benjies Deli has delicious Coney Island hot dogs, Coney Island chili dogs and the Francheesy, the most deluxe dog ever.

Or just order a few of our deli platters, like the cold cut buffet or the 16″ ring sandwich tray. With our deli platters, no one has to worry about ordering, they can just grab a sandwich while they watch their favorite team. Then again, you can always just have Benjies cater and have some people over at your house for the game. That way you can take credit for some incredible food, having not lifted a finger. It’s all about the game!!
