Sure, everyone knows about bagels and lox. And yes, we’ll always love a classic pastrami on rye. But if you think that’s all Steingold’s has up its (rolled-up deli) sleeves, think again.

This year, we’re challenging you to level up your deli game with five uniquely Steingold’s dishes you have to try because life’s too short to eat the same sandwich every week (even if it’s the “Uncle Rube”).
1. Babka Latte
Yes, it’s real. A blend of espresso and steamed milk infused with the rich, chocolatey swirl of a fresh slice of babka. It’s comfort in a cup, and once you try it, your regular latte will feel... well, boring.
2. “Lox Your Way”
This isn’t your average lox platter—it’s a build-your-own experience with premium house-cured salmon, a rainbow of schmears, and enough accouterments to make your brunch spread the talk of the table (and your group chat).
3. Hot Giardiniera Cream Cheese
This Chicago-Jewish crossover is a chef’s kiss. Spicy, tangy, crunchy—it brings heat to your bagel without overpowering it. Pro tip: pair it with a toasted everything bagel and a cold brew.
4. Pimento Cheese
Southern charm meets Jewish deli. Our pimento cheese is bold, creamy, and just a little bit rebellious. Perfect on challah, in a sandwich, or straight off the spoon (no judgment).
5. Mediterranean Chickpea Salad
Who said deli can’t be fresh and bright? This plant-based powerhouse is hearty, herby, and balanced with lemony zing. Great as a side—or a satisfying main if you’re taking a break from meat (it happens).
Dare to deli differently. These dishes are just the tip of the bagel. Come in, try something new, and find your next obsession.
