No picture, so guess it based on the description:

Hot pastrami (almost as good as Manny's) on rye with fresh-cut fries smothered in merkt's cheddar, $9.50 + tax.

Not where I had this particular combination today, although if they offer it, that's pretty awesome and I guess you win :)

Are you some kind of throwbacky MUD proponent? This is the 2010s! GUIs, everything shown in high resolution, no need for imagination or those pesky sentence thingies. I want my megapixels, and refuse to participate in this exercise until I see some imagery.

There is a cottage to your south.

hey, I don't know. I figured this was an unusual enough combination that it'd be exclusive to this restaurant.

Hints: within the city limits and not open for dinner.

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

Yep. It was either that or ohio house ;)

So let me say this: the pastrami is very similar to manny's (as you'd expect), but not quite as dry and perhaps not quite as intensely flavored, on inferior bread.

The fries are perfectly fine fresh cut fries, and the merkts is ladled on generously.
