Chunk Foods X Pastrami Queen | Serving plant-based pastrami
In New York City, Chunk Foods and Pastrami Queen announced a new partnership. Since Thursday, August 1, Pastrami Queen’s Moynihan Food Hall location serves “The Prince powered by Chunk”, a wonderful combination of Chunk’s award-winning plant-based Slab prepared as Pastrami, New York deli mustard, rye bread, and a pickle. This exciting collaboration honours the rich culinary heritage of NYC while embracing new, delicious, meaty options.
Sometimes a name brings back memories! Back in the eighties I travelled frequently to NYC, staying either in Brooklyn or on Manhattan. I can still remember the taste of my first pastrami sandwich. I hope the ‘The Prince powered by Chunk’ offers vegans the same memories! ^Marjolein
