Harry & Ida's Meat and Supply Co.

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


Harry & Ida's Meat and Supply Co. is a smokehouse and delicatessen located in New York's Alphabet City.[1][2] It was opened in 2015 by Will Horowitz and his sister Julia Horowitz.[3] The owners also opened a restaurant in Tribeca called Harry and Ida's Luncheonette. Harry and Ida's is named after their grandparents, who owned a delicatessen in Harlem.[4]

Their pastrami sandwich is considered one of the best in New York.[5][6] It is served on a Pain d' Avignon club roll, instead of the tradition rye bread, with cracked rye berries, anchovy mustard, and buttermilk-fermented cucumber kraut.[1][7][8] Their pastrami is brined with juniper berries and seasoned with coriander and black pepper before being smoked.[9]

Besides pastrami, they also serve a smoked eel sandwich (the live eels are butchered and smoked in-house), smoked bluefish and a smoked apricot chicken sandwich with green apple, red cabbage saurkraut, basil, and a charred poblano pepper sourcream seasoned with ras el hanout. They also have some vegetarian options including a "vegetarian chopped liver" sandwich made from mushroom-walnut puree and a amaranth quinoa and sorghum grain salad topped with coconut babaganoush and baked tofu.[9][10]

The shop does not offer any seating because it is regulated by the Department of Agriculture and not the Department of Health, which oversees restaurants. The Gothamist has written that the rules of the Department of Agriculture allow Will Horowitz to "more fully pursue and experiment with the 'heritage techniques' of smoking, drying, fermentation, and aging that are his current passion."[6]
