I don’t even want to guess what a burger costs in Manhattan these days (much less the ever-delicious corned beef sandwich I used to get for lunch at the Carnegie Deli about a quarter of a century ago)...
Well, of course, it depends on where you have your burger. You can still get one for under $5. When you come back to NYC (if you do!), try Katzes’ corn beef (hot dogs, too) or 2nd Avenue Deli.

Yum. Those foot-high sandwiches are the meat-eaters answer to prayer
