Gandolfo’s New York Deli opens at The Promenade at Chenal on Thursday, June 15. The restaurant will celebrate the opening by giving away a Gandolfo’s travel mug and refills of coffee for a year to the first 100 people to come, starting at 7 a.m. From 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. Friday, all breakfast items will be half price. On Tuesday, June 20, the men and women in blue will eat for free; firefighters get to chow down gratis on Wednesday, June 21. Kids with their parents can eat for free on Thursday, June 22.

So what’s on the menu, you ask. A lot of cute names. Since this is a deli, you’ll find hero sandwiches like the Dagwood (a whole bunch of meats, cheese, onion, etc.), the Big Apple (cappicola with roast beef, pepper jack, feta, etc.), a Meatball Hero and more. The Knuckle Sandwich features pastrami, cheese and marinated mushrooms; the Rockefeller Reuben is corned beef or pastrami or tucker with Swiss cheese, sauerkraut and Russian dressing. Bagels and breakfast sandwiches are served all day.
