Mile End regularly offers New Yorkers Montreal-style deli. Above, the staff posed last month with Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau (fourth from left), who stopped by for lunch. This week, the eatery will offer a Jewish feast of a different kind.
In a few hours, foodie curators will take over Mile End Deli’s Manhattan location for an over-the-top “Montreal-style Jewish feast.”
Its nine courses include a decadent-sounding maple-smoked duck potato latke with shaved foie gras; fattoush with candy-cane beets and angel-hair cheese; and slow-roasted lamb with falafel and spicy eggplant. Mile End co-owner Noah Bernamoff concocted the menu. Tickets still available; they’re $50.
