You'll never see cheese on meat sandwich in a Kosher Jewish deli. You won't see pork sausage or pork bacon.. or any dairy mixed with meat. Jews won't "boil a kid in mother's milk". Exodus 23:19

Jews will never see or eat anything that's been cooked in lard.

Jews are also not allowed to eat any blood, so their kill/slaughter process involves draining all the blood out of the animal before it's cooked. They're also careful not to have any blood in their eggs.

Was kicked out of the last Jewish deli I visited just for ordering a ham and cheese sandwich with a glass of milk.

Not sure I’ve ever even eaten in Jewish Deli. Not sure there is one around Shreveport Bossier area.

Not really deli or a diner but I’ll take Taylor’s on North Market in Shreveport for the win.

I was nearly kicked out of a Jewish Deli in New York because I took a photograph of the food lineup. They're very superstitious. The big guy in the kippah told me in a very loud way that if you take a photograph of customers in the deli, the customers will be in the photograph and not in the deli. I deleted the photograph out of respect and courtesy.. but I was like

Orthodox Jews own a lot of the shops that sell cameras, computers, tv's and stereos in New York. The married men can't look another woman in the eye and when a woman walks in the store, they immediately turn their head and point, and either one of their kids or the token Gentile employee will wait on the lady.

Kicked out?

A kosher deli will either offer meat or dairy. Unusual they would have both in the building to offer that. Much less ham.

It would be like going into Cane's and demanding a burger.

As long as you play by their rules, there's not going to be a problem. But to an outsider, from the South, they can come across very crass and condescending. Arabs and Indians, as well. Indians can be horrible.

I like Jewish deli. But not Kosher. I like cheese on my sandwich.

Like going in purposefully ordering things not listed on the menu?

Non-jewish people are allowed to go to jewish or kosher deli's.

Food items/menu may restrict customers but that is true of any menu.

I went to Kosher Cajun Deli and asked for a pastrami and swiss, and got a stern we don't do that. I forgot I was in a Kosher deli, my bad.

I apologized and paid for my takeout.

Dan does not GAF

I like both places.

Kosher cajun does serve/sell dairy. Thought you could get cream cheese on a bagel but has been a long time.

Cheese is to go though.

Fish isn't considered meat according to Jewish Law.. (Catholic Law as well for that matter)

Salmon and cream cheese is considered Kosher.

Right, but there are cross contamination concerns. Can't use the same prep/plates/appliances/etc.
