No. 27: Overstuffed Deli Sandwiches from 3G's Gourmet Deli

Lots of South Florida delis tout themselves as "New York-style," but

then they lack

the basics: overstuffed sandwiches, a three-hour

early-bird special (in this case, 3 to 6 p.m.), and the stocking of the

delicacy meat called, quite simply, "cow tongue," which the uninitiated

cringe at and the connoisseurs relish. 3G's has all of that and more.

Whether cow tongue, pastrami, or corned beef, the sandwiches are

sandwiches in name only -- more like pounds of thinly sliced meat with

a piece of rye lilting on top for good measure.
