Houston deli lands on national 'best' list

Kenny & Ziggy’s lands on Food & Wine mag’s list of “Americas Best Delis”

The editors (or, more likely, online sprites) at Food & Wine magazine have put together a list of America’s Best Delis.

And, surprise, there’s a Houston diner on the list: Kenny & Ziggy’s. The restaurant, located on Post Oak near the Galleria, is known for its huge portions and tasty pickles.
It’s No. 13 in a slide show (of course, it’s a slide show!) of 23. Since the restaurants aren’t in alphabetical order, we must assume that the order is ranked. (Whomever put the list/slide show together also offered no criteria for inclusion.)

The editor (or aggregating bot) writes of Kenny & Ziggy’s:

“Of course the smoked-meat experts in Texas are going to know their way around some pastrami. Partner Ziggy Gruber also ran delis on both coasts before heading to Houston, so in addition to great beef, the deli also offers fantastic chicken soup and textbook-perfect pickles.”

The Houston restaurant was the only Texas deli to make the list
