Steingold's of Chicago: Bagels, Pastrami and Lox with Aaron Steingold
This week's episode was recorded at The Bagel Inn, the AirBnB above Steingold's. Joe and Aaron shared an Uncle Rube, Lox on an Everything Bagel, and perfectly cooked latkes to kick things off. This episode begins with a discussion of the history and current offerings of Steingold's. Aaron shares some of his formative meals and experiences between his upbringing in North Carolina, moving to Chicago and discovering the current state of the restaurant scene, and his prior venture with a sandwich pop-up. Aaron describes how he aimed to bring New York Deli to Chicago, and how the bagel scene in this city has changed since he first opened his doors. The duo discuss pastrami, lox, pickled herring, and a litany of other favorites you can order today at Steingold's. Aaron also gives a sneak preview of what's next for Steingold's, including a second location, dinner, Sephardic influenced cooking, and much more.
