Mort's Deli
Mort's Palisades Deli, more commonly referred to as Mort's Deli, was a Jewish delicatessen located at 1035 Swarthmore Ave on the corner of Sunset Boulevard in Pacific Palisades, California. History In the early 1970s, Mort Farberow opened a butcher shop on Sunset Boulevard in the Village neighborhood Pacific Palisades. Business was steady, but he was still unsatisfied with the direction of his business. Farberow and wife Bobbie Farberow then relocated around the corner to Swarthmore Avenue, where they opened "Mort’s Palisades Deli" in 1972. Mort's could not have come along at a better time as the opening coincided with a massive growth of the Jewish community in the Palisades. In 1978, Mort's moved to a larger location on the opposite side of the street on 1035 Swarthmore, where it remained until it closed its doors in 2007. During the 1980s restaurant boom in the LA Southlands, the deli came under increasing competition with up to 30 deli's opening in the Pallisades area. Fa ...

Jewish Delicatessen
A Jewish deli, also known as a Jewish delicatessen, is a delicatessen establishment that serves various traditional dishes in Ashkenazi Jewish cuisine, and are typically known for their sandwiches such as pastrami on rye, as well as their soups such as matzo ball soup, among other dishes. Most of them are in the Ashkenazi style, due to the history of the Jewish diaspora that has sometimes been adapted to local taste preferences, as in the American Jewish cuisine. Jewish delicatessens serve a variety of Jewish dishes, and many are also kosher-certified, while some are kosher-style and do not mix meat and dairy in the same dish, while others serve food with no dietary restrictions such as the Reuben sandwich. Jewish delis feature prominently in Jewish culture, as well as in general American popular culture, particularly in the cities of New York, Chicago and Los Angeles as well as in Canada, especially in Montreal and Toronto. The United Kingdom, particularly London has also his ...
