They'd say Russell Street or Mudgies takes the cake!" — Anna Kohn, director, Downtown Synagogue 7 Kids Meals - Star Deli "Best corned beef is Star Deli.

In an effort to have a special food item dedicated to what is being called Thanksgivukkah, he contacted Patrick Coleman, owner of Beans & Cornbread and Southern Nosh, both in Southfield.
