"YOU DON'T HAVE TO be
Jewish to enjoy eating at the
largest, strictly kosher deli-
restaurant-meat market and
grocery in the Southeast," says
Ben Brody, bossman at Ess Gez-
unt (that's Yiddish for eat-in-
good-health), the only unique,
one-of-its-kind discount estab-
lishment within an 800-mile
radius of Atlanta, Ga.. . . and pos-
sibly in the entire southeast
United States.
A year after opening in Toco
Hills Shopping Center, Ess Gez-
unt moved around the corner to a
new location four times the origi-
nal size . . . from 1,360 sq. ft. to
5,000 sq. ft. . . . featuring a new,
spacious deli, grocery and meat
market . . . plus adding a new
kosher restaurant seating about
75 people . . . serving breakfast,
lunch and dinner, complete with
salad bar.
It's the first time the South has
ever had a kosher operation of this
type and size . . . and customers
have responded by coming as far
away as Charlotte, N.C.
Four times the space means
four times as much hot, steaming
corned beef, pastrami, smoked
white fish, lox, kippered salmon,
chopped liver, bagels, home-made
potato salad, cole slaw, garden
salad, its noted chunky-chicken
salad, kosher pickles and other
delicacies.
Every step of food preparation
is under strict Orthodox rabbini-
cal supervision . . . Four full-time
mashgiachs (supervisors directed
by the rabbinical council) are on
the premises from the time it
opens to closing . . . making sure
that all food prepared and sold
meets strict kosher regulations
according to traditional kosher
dietary laws . . . In addition, the
cook is "shomer shabbos."
Restaurant customers are
greeted by tantalizing "Jewish
cooking" sights and smells . . . A
Discount Deli breakfast consists
of two eggs, meat fry, country-
fried potatoes, bagel and coffee for
only $1.39 . . . For lunch, it could
be an "overstuffed" deli sandwich
with one-half pound hot corned
beef or pastrami, hot brisket of
beef or turkey breast on Jewish
rye . . . with potato salad or cole
slaw for $3.95 . . . Early Bird
Dinners include roast brisket of
beef or roast chicken with soup,
salad bar and dessert for $4.95 .. .
If tastes run a little more expen-
sive, full prime rib or rib-eye
steak dinner costs $8.95.
Ess Gezunt Discount Deli also
has a large kosher fresh meat and
chicken department plus 43 feet of
frozen foods and a grocery de-
partment with most any food
you'd expect to find in a regular
supermarket . . . all kosher.
ONLY COMEDY CASTLE
remains . . . on Woodward near 14
Mile . . . in building formerly
occupied by Maximilian's and
John Laffrey's (Yassoo before
that) . 2. Mark Ridley's Comedy
Castle, a very staple and
nationally-known showplace for
comedians, continues to take up
the lower level . . . even though
upstairs restaurant has closed.
Don't miss impressionist Mendi
Segal if possible . . . He's there to-
night and tomorrow night, 8:30
and 11.
No more putting his Comedy
Castle in other places, says Mark
Ridley . . . He's no looking for own
location.
NEW FACT LIFT at Bloom-
field Charley's on Orchard Lake
Rd. and Maple includes new car-
peting and new lighting . . .
Chuck Muer's popular neighbor-
hood family tavery re-opened
after extensive kitchen damage
from fire had closed the spot.
CHICK CHALET is newest
tenant at Restaurants on Main
Street in Tel-12 Mall, Telegraph
and 12 Mile . . . with gourmet-
style chicken sandwiches a spe-
cialty . . . chicken breasts on
fresh, bakery-warm bun . . . Also
chicken cordon bleu, chicken
parmigiana , Chicken Little
(bite-size boneless chicken for
dipping and snacking) and fried
chicken . . . It has barbecue ribs,
too.
CHEFS, OWNERS, managers
and waitresses from over 30 res-
taurants spread their tables on
the front lawn of the State Capitol
