David Sax podcast
As flagged yesterday, I got to speak to David Sax tonight and you can listen to the podcast below.
He is undoubtedly committed to the cause of saving the deli and his recipe isn't so complex: stick to doing the basics of deli food and do it better than anyone else. Whether that is sufficient to overcome the almost non-existent margins in serving sandwiches stuffed a foot high with expensive meat, is questionable.
Nonetheless, it's tempting to give it a go. Which is why I want to make special mention of Daniel Young, a man similarly on a mission who will be selling freshly made latkes tomorrow at Covent Garden Market. He's a mensch, go and support him.
Returning to my interview with David, I should apologise to him and you for the pretty piss-poor sound quality. Blame Skype. Next time I won't do a skype-to-skype call for these purposes. Thankfully though he sounds better than I do.
