As promised, I cruised over to the Carnegie Deli in midtown Manhattan to put my appetite, and stomach, to the test against “The ‘Melo” sandwich, a monstrosity of a creation featuring six pounds of corned beef, pastrami, salami, bacon and Russian dressing.
To prepare for my battle against the beast, I spoke with deli owner Sandy Levine to get inside the mind of the creator and hopefully put a plan of attack in place. I was undoubtedly the underdog, but I wasn’t going down without a fight.
Check out my journey against “The ‘Melo” in the video below.
