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.

How will the “elite” quarterback Eli Manning, who currently boasts the 2nd highest quarterback rating in the 4^th quarter this year with four comeback wins, size up against the Patriots’ secondary, Tom Brady? Will Manning win his second Super bowl, and surpass his older and more esteemed brother Peyton, who currently only holds one Super Bowl title? Can Vince Wilfork of the Patriots shut down the Giants run like he did to the Ravens?

These questions, and many more, can be answered as you thoughtfully munch on some Benjies Deli’s eats! Come on down to Benjies’ Bamboo Lounge to enjoy your Super Bowl Sunday—we’re having a party! With six giant flat screens and ample seating for large parties, you won’t miss a single beat if Victor Cruz breaks out his celebratory touchdown salsa routine! Stuff yourself silly with Benjies Deli’s top Happy Hour treats, and then wash it down with an ice cold pint of beer from our fully stocked bar.

Hosting a Super Bowl party at your house? No problem—Benjies Deli also does catering. Order our sandwich platter, equipped with a bountiful selection of meats, cheeses, breads and condiments built to suit anyone’s tastebuds. Order a platter of our famous deviled eggs and our veggie tray, and we promise your friends will nominate you to host Super Bowl Sunday parties from here on out!

Our smoked fish tray is a popular one for parties, especially around the holidays!

There is so much going on in November and December—Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas—and Benjies Deli can help you with it all. What about the NFL and Monday Night Football? We’ve got it covered. We can’t help break the NBA standoff between players and owners, as that seems impossible even for them to sort out! We miss you, Lakers…

But back to celebrating the season, whether that be family holidays or sports! Thanksgiving is coming up, and many people have family in town for the whole weekend. Now, if you’ve spent hours (or even days) preparing a humongous turkey dinner for 25 people, the last thing you want to do for the rest of the weekend is cook. And, let’s be honest, there’s only so much turkey that a human can eat. Call Benjies! Make sure you call in an order for a selection from our hot dinners, served with potatoes, vegetables, salad,  rolls and butter. Choose from roast brisket of beef with potato pancakes, corned beef and cabbage, roast chicken, roast turkey with stuffing and gravy, meatloaf and gravy and Swiss steak. Make sure you call us BEFORE Thanksgiving though, as these orders usually need 72 hours advance notice.

And if you want to cut down your prep for your Thanksgiving meal, or perhaps are planning a party at your home for the holidays, Benjies Deli also provides fresh fruit and vegetable trays which are perfect for those looking for a lighter option. Light, tasty and healthy, Benjies’ provides four salad tray choices, from simple green to Caesar and Chef’s Salad. Don’t forget about dessert! Every party needs something sweet to finish with. We have a dessert tray that features a selection of our fresh pastries cut to size for ease of serving.

Don’t forget that we have frozen pot pies, beef or chicken, at the ready for you to take home and store in your own freezer. The holiday season can be crazy, and won’t it be nice to have a few meals on hand that you don’t have to cook? And tell us, who doesn’t love a pot pie??

What about having the guys over for Monday Night Football or even a poker night while the ladies are out Christmas shopping? Get Hot Wings or Barbeque Meatballs by the dozen, or choose from one of our many sandwich trays. Want the sandwiches ready to eat? Try the Sandwich Platter or the 16″ Ring Sandwich. Want to give your guests the option of making their own? No problem: order the Cold Cut Buffet, the Brown Bag Buffet, the Smoked Fish Platter or the Lox Platter.

Most companies, even in this dreadful economy, want to treat their employees to a little celebration around the holidays. And we understand that budget is an issue. So how about, instead of taking everyone out for lunch, have an old-fashioned holiday party at the office! (Although keep the alcohol to a minimum, it will reduce the chance of attendees using the photocopier or scanners inappropriately.) We’ve got the perfect answer: All of our sandwich platters are priced per person, so it’s easy to get the right amount of food for the right price. What about something a little more formal in the evening? Benjies can put together some delicious deli trays as well as appetizers like deviled eggs, salami cornucopias, mini knishes and potato latkes.

If you’re determined to get out of the office for your party, don’t forget that you can book the Bamboo Lounge! It has a full bar and we can cater a buffet or organize a sit-down meal for a holiday party to remember.

To reserve the Bamboo Lounge for your event or to order from the catering menu, call Lloyd Weinstein  on (714) 541-6263. Please note, catering orders require that you provide 24-72 hours advance notice. Thank you!

And don’t forget to watch us on Facebook and Twitter for our special deals! Check in on Facebook four times between now and the new year to receive a free lunch for one. Yes, it’s that simple—we want to reward our loyal customers!

Green Bay Packers kick off the season vs. New Orleans Saints!

Yes, it’s that time again—time for the bone-crushing gladiator battle that is NFL football. And Benjies Deli has all the action, thanks to the DirecTV NFL Sunday Ticket package. Did you know that we can watch up to eight games on one of the six TVs we’ve got in the Bamboo Lounge? That every game will be in HD? That the Sunday Ticket gives us REDZONE, where every play from within the 20-yard line is highlighted and in HD? We can even get an update on your favorite players and get replays of all the NFL Sunday game highlights during the week! In a word, it’s awesome.

Tonight’s game against the New Orleans Saints at the Green Bay Packers’ Lambeau Field is sure to be a fantastic, action-packed contest with superb entertainment from the likes of Kid Rock and Lady Antebellum.

Now, we know that you can watch this game on NBC, but there are going to be games that you’ll only be able to watch on Sunday Ticket. But even if you can watch them at your house, who’s going to feed you a hot sandwich on rye piled high with layers of pastrami and cheese? Are you going to whip up a meatloaf sandwich with mashed potatoes and smothered in gravy? Who’s going to build a Francheesy for you at home? How could you possibly have grilled knockwurst, crisp bacon and American cheese hanging around the house to put on a grilled onion roll? You want to miss the game to get your french fries out of the oven? We didn’t think so.

And what if you’ve got a bunch of friends with you? Check in at Benjies on Facebook and tag a friend, and you’ll both get a free beer! This deal starts tomorrow, so make sure you come in on Sunday for some NFL action over a cold one. Why not order some buffalo hot wings, jalapeno poppers and Kobe beef sliders to snack on during the game? If you boys think you’re man enough, try the Deli Feast—an unbeatable selection of all of our deli favorites. You ready? It’s got hot corned beef, pastrami, turkey, tongue, salami and chopped liver, served with Swiss and American cheese, potato salad, coleslaw, tomatoes, sweet red onions, Greek olives, pickles and a stack of sliced rye bread to pile it all on. Making you thirsty? We’ve always got cold beer on tap or in bottles, plus a full bar for any kind of drink you fancy.

So don’t miss the NFL action at Benjies Deli. Come on down tomorrow night to kick off the season with the NFL kick off between Green Bay and the Saints.

Augusta National Golf Club, home and host of the Masters Tournament

The first week of April hails excitement for many golf fans across the nation, as the one of the biggest golf tournaments of the year, the Masters Tournament, finally kicks off.  The Masters Tournament, originally called the “Augusta National Invitation” tournament, began in 1934 as the brainchild of golf extraordinaire Bobby Jones.  After retiring from his golf career, Jones pursued a different dream—to build the ultimate golf course.  Jones found the perfect piece of land in Augusta, Georgia, and with the help of Clifford Roberts (who later became the chairman of the course), the two transformed the lot into what is known today as the legendary August National Golf Club.   Many deem the Augusta Course as the best golf course in the nation, and it continually ranks in Golf Digest’s Top 100 Golf Courses of America.  The August National Golf Club is the official golf course for the Masters Tournament, an event with as just as formidable of a reputation as the golf course itself.

This year will be the 75^th Masters Tournament, scheduled from April 7-April 10 2011.  Watch as the golf world’s biggest names, from Hideki Matsuyama to Tiger Woods, compete for the coveted green jacket and the championship title.

Join Benjies Deli at our Bamboo Lounge, which boasts six wide-screen televisions so you and your friends won’t miss a single tee-off.  The Bamboo Bar is a fully stocked bar with ample seating for large groups, and even has a menu of tasty bar food that changes every week.  Or, if you are feigning for a full meal, like Benjies Deli‘s world famous pastrami sandwich or our matzo ball soup, you can order off Benjies Deli‘s full menu of classic deli selections.

Want to watch the Masters Tournament from the comfort of your own home? No problem! Benjies Deli also provides delicious catering for parties and gatherings.  From build-your-own sandwich platter options to fully catered beef brisket meals, Benjies Deli has got you covered for your next party.  Check out our deli platters and catering options here and call us at least 48 hours in advance at (714)541-6263 to place your order.

Why on earth are we celebrating St. Patrick’s Day for a week?  Well, why not?  Why not partake in Ireland’s most celebrated holiday, where we can honor the country’s most revered patron saint? Or, just as importantly, why limit our customers to just one day of celebration?  We would hate to see our customers have to wait in a jam-packed restaurant on March 17, so in order accommodate everyone, Benjies Deli will be holding the St. Patrick’s Day festivities for six days.

And, a bonus reason for celebrating St. Patrick’s Day is that the holiday is right before the first day of spring, and what better way to ring in the new season than with our famous pastrami and some matzo ball soup?

Come in during the week with your friends and take advantage of our big screens and full bar in the Bamboo Lounge. The Lakers are playing the Orlando Magic on Monday, March 14th, the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday, March 18th, and the Portland Trailblazers on Sunday, March 20th—watch the Lakers win while celebrating the Irish holiday with some hot corned beef and cabbage and refreshing green Budweiser!
