The Deli Counter

SAUL:We have Filipinos, Africans, people from the Middle East, people from China who work in my store. And if they are willing to learn, they go right up the ladder. My top manager is Hispanic; he started as a dishwasher 15 years ago. He goes to college, studying accounting -- he's brilliant. When I leave the store in his charge, it's the same as one of my sons being there.

ON THE FUTURE OF DELIS:

BLOOMGARDEN:In 20 years the deli will be just as strong as it is now.

LANGER:I agree with Terri. We've been at our location for 55 years. Seventy-five years ago it was different. But in the last 25 or 30 years, there hasn't been much of a change. So I don't feel there will be much of a change in the next 50 years.

SAUL:We do more things in food better than anybody else, so delis will always, in one form or another, be around.

GINSBURG:Delis are places to meet, greet, be at. It's comforting. This is the place! The deli will never go out of existence.
