Carnegie Delicatessen

The Carnegie Deli, one of NYC's culinary landmarks, opened in 1937 in midtown Manhattan across from Carnegie Hall as a 40 seat restaurant.  When the original owners retired in 1976, the deli was taken over by a new restaurant group, specifically Milton Parker, who was known as the CPM - Corned Beef and Pastrami Maven. Now in its third generation of owners, the deli is still family owned and operated by Marian Levine, Milton Parker's daughter. It was featured prominently in Broadway Danny Rose, Woody Allen's film that chronicled the career of Danny Rose, a Broadway talent agent to a motley crew of hopeless, wannabe stars. His misadventures are discussed by comedians who share Danny Rose stories at The Carnegie. The Carnegie was also featured in Food Paradise.
