Crossroads Delicatessen, 2795 Hedberg Dr, Hopkins, MN 55305

Crossroads Delicatessen is a Jewish deli and it is delightful.  It helps if you are about fifty, but they do not card at the door so enjoy.  It reminds me of my grandmother for some reason.  It is just good old fashioned food, yum.

When you walk in the door there are items that you can buy to the left.  Wait to be seated and you will be taken into the dining hall on the right.  There are two eating areas that I could see.  You will find some booths and some tables.

I ordered a cream soda.  Specifically Dr. Browns cream soda.  It was pretty good.

They start you off with bread and butter.  They bring a variety of breads:  white, wheat, and rye.  I took the white and having bread and butter really took me back.  It is such a simple thing, but also amazing because the bread is fresh baked, not something sitting on the shelf.  Yes, absolute joy from simple bread and butter.

I then ordered the beef n’ borscht because why not?  It smells funny (cabbage) , but wow, the beef was so tender, the sauce was tangy.  It all tastes so good.  I do not think that I have ever had borscht before, but I have to say it reminded me if eating a meal with my grandmother.  They were going for this feeling and the nailed it.  Delicious.

Everything is priced very reasonably.  It is really a great place.  The crowd is older, but they know what good food tastes like.  I really like this place.  I think you will too.
