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.

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. This season you can get your fill of bone-crushing football action and great authentic deli food all at the same place: Benjies Deli. Don’t forget to follow us on Facebook and Twitter! We’re running all sorts of competitions and special offers you can only find on our social media! Or you can just call us, the old fashioned way, by calling (714) 541-6263.

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.

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.
