I love Reubens. Harold's makes a really good one.

However, there is a small local tavern here on Staten Island called Shaefer's Tavern, which has probably been around here for 100 years. The place is probably frequented by the same people who frequented it 50 years ago, and the bar tennders are probably the same bartenders from back then!

When my father in-law is up from florida, all the guys in the family as well as my father in-law's old buddies, get together on a saturday afternoon to go to this tavern for some beers and lunch. They make the traditional german stuff as well as pastrami, corned beef and other deli sandwiches. But they make a really great Reuben sandwich that I would pit against ANY famous deli. It's just out of this world.
