| - The Weiss deli was a good find. I stumbled across it one day in the back of a strip shopping center at Green Valley Parkway and Sunset in Henderson, and have returned there many times since. Weiss in Henderson and the Bagel Cafe near Summerlin are my two favorite Jewish delis in the LV area. Having lived in Manhattan (NYC) for so long where I had my choice of high quality delis, Weiss probably comes the closest in comparison to any found in NYC. The food is prepared the way a traditional Jewish "bubbie" would make it (lol). Try the pancakes...they use a special cake flour from overseas that makes their pancakes flavorful and fluffy. They're killer, and put ANY IHOP or Denny's to shame. I introduced several of my friends to Weiss and they ALL go bonkers over the pancakes. Weiss makes a proper chicken soup, too. If you order one, the tasty baseball-sized matzo ball is like a prize in the the middle of your big bowl to keep carving into. I also like the chopped chicken liver pate. Not too many people would order such a delicacy, but it's the best I've found in Las Vegas--and I'm picky. Lastly, the sandwiches are generously portioned and made the right way. Simple, high-quality ingredients are used--none of that processed "meat" you find at Subway or other sandwich shops. The bread is freshly baked and cut on the premises. At Weiss, the full menu is available all day long, so you can have those special pancakes for lunch or dinner if you want. And as you leave, stop by the adjoining bakery, for a sack of fresh bagels to go or a sweet rugelach bite for dessert. I highly recommend Weiss for a good value, high quality, authentic Jewish deli meal anytime.
