"God. Country. Corned Beef." Now that's a slogan I can stand behind at Schlesinger's, the Locust Street deli that real estate mogul Alan Domb converted from the Kibbitz Room several months ago, where there's been more than a name change (now an ode to Domb's mother's family.) Hymie's owner Louis Barson was brought in to manage, prices were lowered, and the squishy old bread has been replaced with more substantial rye from Kaplan's. The big pickle bar and sassy Sy Ginsburg pastrami remain (thank goodness), featured in this Parc Rittenhouse combo with slaw and Russian. (I like it grilled.) Just as intriguing is a new dinner menu featuring big slabs of quality rib steak and veal chops that, for less than $20, are true bargains. - Craig LaBan
