Harold's New York Deli / Edison, NJ — The Sandwich Enthusiast For Hot Pastrami Sandwich Day 2025, I tried Harold's NY Deli in Edison. I did not leave hungry.

For #HotPastramiSandwichDay this year, I checked out Harold’s NY Deli in Edison, NJ.

And I assure you, I did not leave hungry.

A top down picture of a sandwich made for me by my wife. There’s two big sandwich hats with each then on a black-and-white plate. The centers of the tops of the sandwiches are really well toasted. A bag of crispy chips on the side. .

The last of the leftover Thanksgiving turkey, sliced red onion, Irish cheddar, mayo, and Dijon on rockland bakery bread, pressed. #goodlunch

A turkey sandwich absolutely stuffed to the gills with pickles on a wooden cutting board against a gray backdrop.

Throwback to my 2015 heyday: turkey, cheddar, tomato, probably mayo and mustard, and an absolute ton of pickles. Very likely on Rockland Bakery bread. #goodlunch

A stacked bagel with tuna salad and toppings, sliced and displayed for the camera on a plate on a wooden table. There’s a glass of root beer to the side. I’m gonna eat it now.

Tuna salad (tuna, mayo, horseradish, chopped bell peppers and onion), Irish cheddar, avocado, and a smidge of Dijon on a toasted everything bagel. #goodlunch #sandwich

A sandwich on a table. The sandwich is cut in half and we’re looking at the profile. There are thick cuts of mozzarella, bright red roasted red peppers and—bonus for the alt text, not the post copy—bright green pickles. A big soft brioche bun holds it all together.

I call this The Farmers Market (bc it’s all ingredients from my local farmers market): mozzarella, grilled chicken, roasted red peppers, arugula, red onion, pesto, and Dijon on brioche. #goodlunch #sandwich

A cheeseburger at Berks Tavern in Newark, New Jersey. There’s an egg on the burger and melted cheese, and there are some nice looking french fries in the foreground.

Brunch burger at Burke’s Tavern in Newark. Medium rare beef, cheddar, other stuff that I can’t remember, and a big ol’ runny egg (complimentary) on top. Couple of beers and a side of fries. Delicious.
