My SO helps run his family’s restaurant which has been in business since 1949. He constantly gets asked if they have souvenir t-shirts for sale and the answer has always been no. So, I have been getting these priced out for him and re-designed the main logo for the front of the t-shirt, but we think that there should be a great slogan for the place on the back of the shirt…so far, we’ve got a couple bad ones. A bit about the restaurant, it was started in 1949 with the deli in the front and the restaurant in the back by his grandfather. It’s been run by his family ever since and they’re all Jewish but the restaurant isn’t necessarily kosher, but they can do some kosher stuff. They’re well-known for their Reubens (which are frickin’ awesome) and bake their own breads and rolls. Here’s a [link to their website](http://www.cecilsdeli.com/) with the menu on it too. One thing that the menu doesn’t really mention is the sandwich sizes. There’s the regular and then there’s the double beef sandwich which is called the “chazer-size”. That led me to the slogan “Chazer-sized chutzpah” which was nixed. My SO really wants something as catchy as [Katz’s NY deli’s slogan which is “Send a salami to your boy in the army”.](http://www.katzdeli.com/shopping/index.php?cat=apparel) Any and all ideas are welcome and let me know if you need more facts/info. Thanks! ---

Salami, salami, baloney? 😛 We put the ‘deli’ in ‘delicious’. Matzoh fast. Chanukah, Schmanukah. ---

You could work the menu into it. Start with “Hot Stuff.” ---
