NEW YORK, Sept. 27, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Loeser's
Kosher Deli, a beloved part of The Bronx culinary scene since 1960, is kicking
off its 60th anniversary celebration with a street
renaming and dedication – and the whole town is invited to the
party!
The New York City Council unanimously approved the renaming of
the intersection of West 231st St. and Godwin Terrace as "Loeser's Deli Place." The
dedication ceremony will take place Saturday, September 28, at 11:00 a.m., with the Loeser family hosting a
community celebration to thank their past and present customers.
Local politicians and dignitaries will also be on hand to honor the
deli, located at 214 W 231st St., and its founder and
owner Freddy Loeser.
As the oldest sole-proprietorship kosher deli in The
Bronx, Loeser's Deli has provided
Bronx residents and visitors a
place to enjoy kosher meals with friends and family since
January 1960. As a staple of the
community, the deli has stood with local schools, houses of worship
and community activism for the betterment of The Bronx.
Hebrew National Kosher Beef Franks have been on the menu at
Loeser's since the beginning. The brand is helping Loeser's
celebrate their long-standing partnership with a
special Hebrew National dog featuring Hebrew National pastrami
and mustard, available on September
28 for $1.
"I've truly lived the American dream and am incredibly grateful
to all of my long-time customers. I couldn't be prouder that I've
been able to put my four children through school by selling kosher
deli to the community that I love," Freddy
Loeser, founder and owner, Loeser's Kosher Deli.
With money saved from his bar mitzvah, Freddy Loeser focused on running the business
while his father did the cooking. At the time, the deli catered to
the borough's large Orthodox and observant Jewish population with
traditional favorites such as pastrami, corned beef, kosher hot
dogs, brisket and knishes. These authentic foods are still on the
menu today with the deli's customers reflecting the
multiculturalism of New York.
About Loeser's Deli
In 1960, a 17-year-old boy took
his Bar Mitzvah money, and with his father opened up a small Kosher
Deli on West 231st St. Since then, Loeser's Deli has provided
Bronx residents and visitors a
place to enjoy kosher meals with friends and family as a staple in
the community for 59 years. It is the oldest standing (sole
proprietorship) kosher deli in The Bronx today. For more information, visit
