Go Lakers!

The 2011 NBA Basketball Playoffs are in high gear, and the Los Angeles Lakers have shifted into full throttle! Currently, the Lakers are leading 3-2 against the New Orleans Hornets.  Benjies Deli admits we were feeling a tad worried after a rather atrocious Game 1, where front man Pau Gasol, who normally averages 22.3 points per game, only scored a meager eight points and grabbed only six rebounds on the offensive.  The poor performance caused the Lakers, ranked number 2 team by the Western Conference, to lose to the seventh-seeded Hornets! Talk about an upset! Lakers made a comeback in Game 2, with Andrew Bynum, Ron Artest and Lamar Odom picking up on Gasol’s slack, though the Hornets remained competitive until the end and definitely gave the Lakers a run for their money.

Though the Lakers are off to a fumbling start, Benjies Deli still has faith in our favorite LA team! Come out to Benjies Deli tonight to support the Lakers and watch them defeat the Hornets and advance in the playoffs.  Enjoy a plate of our Kobe Beef Sliders and watch as Kobe Bryant beefs it up with the referees. Or, try out the Benjie Special, a hot pastrami sandwich and coleslaw with Russian dressing on rye, served with potato salad.  Longing for something even heartier?  Don’t forget about our famous corned beef and cabbage plate, the best Orange County has to offer!

If you are just feeling snacky, grab a drink at the Bamboo Lounge’s fully stocked bar. There are six large screen TVs and an abundance of space to seat all of your friends. Dunk into a tall glass of ice-cold draft beer, and score big with our corned beef, pastrami and Swiss cheese triple-decker sandwich as tall as Andrew Bynum. Feeling the team spirit?  Share a deli platter, like the cold cut buffet or the 16″ ring sandwich tray, with your friends. With our deli platters, no one has to worry about ordering, they can just grab a sandwich while they watch their favorite team—the Lakers.

If you want to enjoy the game in the comforts of your own home, Benjies Deli can still help out with your catering needs–All of our deli platters are available for home parties too! Make sure you call 48-72 hours ahead to order before your event. That way you can have Benjies Deli do all the work while you relax and take all the credit. Benjies Deli makes entertaining at home easy and delicious.  For catering inquiries and ordering, please call Benjies Deli at (714) 541-6263.

Lakers Pull Through

Although it was one of the ugliest games of basketball I’ve ever seen the Lakers prevailed. As Phil Jackson said, “Well, it’s done. It wasn’t well done, but it was done. And we did it with perseverance.” It couldn’t have been more dramatic either with the Celtics pushing their lead to 13 in the third quarter and the Lakers showing no sign of a run. Finally the Lakers started to chip away at the Celtic’s lead in the fourth. With Artest, finally showing up offensively, hitting a crucial 3-pointer at the end of the fourth the Lakers came out on top. Miraculously the Lakers only had a shot percentage of 32.5 and were 67.6 percent from the line-statistics that aren’t indicative of a win. However they pulled through with the win and avenged their 2008 loss to the Celtics.

Now with the basketball season over I feel a little lost. Luckily the FIFA World Cup is in full swing and we have another reason to go hang out at Benjies Deli. Come on down to the Bamboo Lounge at Benjies Deli, where we have six large screens of sports on display every day of the week.  There’s also a fully stocked bar and an abundance of space to seat you and all of your friends, plus a regularly updated menu of bar snacks that will keep your tastebuds happy for every game. Come down and watch the U.S. play Algeria on Wednesday the 23rd at 4:00 PM. Baseball is also here for us to soften the withdrawals were having from basketball season. So come watch the Angels take on the Dodgers on Tuesday the 22nd, Wednesday the 23rd, or Thursday the 24th, all at 7:00 PM. Enjoy one of Benjies world famous Francheesy dogs and feel like you’re at the game.

Want to watch one of these games at home?  All of our deli platters are available for home parties too! Make sure you call 48-72 hours ahead to order before your event. That way you can have Benjies Deli do all the work while you relax and take all the credit.

If you want to hold a private party, contact Benjies Deli to reserve the Bamboo Lounge and discuss ordering food for the event. Call (714) 541-6263 and ask for Lloyd Weinstein, whether you want to book a private party or have your home event catered.
