Horseradish adds the finishing kick. My only complaint is about the bread. Koumal serves his Reubens on thick slices of homemade light rye that he grills. A true Reuben needs plain, thin slices of hearty Jewish rye. You choose between cheese, hummus or tofu spread, a nice touch.
All sandwiches come with a choice of bagel or bread, pickle, and salad or soup.
Prices may seem a little high at first, but once the food arrives you realize you're eating cheap. Koumal boils his corned beef and roasts the turkey and roast beef in the kitchen. The pastrami is imported. And his simple albacore tuna salad raises the otherwise ho-hum tuna sandwich to fine heights. Soups are prepared every morning from homemade stock.
