Sarge’s Delicatessen has served up hot brisket over potato pancakes, “New York’s Best” corned beef hash, and Hungarian beef goulash in the Murray Hill neighborhood of New York City for the past 55 years. In a city where there are few original Jewish delis still in business, Sarge’s is likely the only one from that older generation that’s open 24/7. While people in the neighborhood might know it as the go-to spot for a pastrami sandwich at 4 in the morning, the pop rock band Haim turned it into an unlikely concert venue on Tuesday night, performing live to promote their upcoming album, Women in Music Pt III, which comes out next month.
Sarge’s is the first stop on the Haim sisters’s so-called Deli Tour, where they’ll play small-scale shows at delicatessens in Washington, D.C., Chicago, Los Angeles and other cities. It’s an idea sparked from the band’s early days—they played their very first show at Canter's Deli in Los Angeles in 2000. The sisters seem to be fully embracing all that these classic restaurants have to offer: They posed post-performance decked out in Sarge’s T-shirts and caps. You already know that the sisters can put on a good show, but now they look like they could make a mean corned beef sandwich, too.
