New York, Cardiff. So good they named it… no, that doesn’t work. But, if you happen upon the High Street Arcade in Cardiff you’ll find more than just an appealing facade…

But do remember to afford much more than just a “New York Minute” for the New York Deli…

For here you find that little piece of New York right in the heart of Cardiff City Centre, complete with a mouth-watering menu…

Take your time, because the choices are amazing. For me on this first visit it had to be The Ritchie Parks with a cup of cwarfee (that’s New York for coffee to the uninitiated!).

I advise that you don’t have a hearty breakfast before planning on visiting this deli, as the salt beef is both fresh and mountainous, topped with Swiss cheese and garnished with gherkin…

If you don’t feel like walking afterwards you might even be surprised by the arrival of the next subway train…

Until we speak again, I guess Juno and Bella would have been more interested in that eagle guarding the stairway…
