Is the omelet really a sandwich? Is that a piece of bread peeking out from under at the right of the photo?

Do you mean that philosophically or literally? Yes, you see half of a toasted hard roll peeking out on the right. The left half of the roll is completely obscured.

I don't care what you call it. I call it fantastic!

A sandwich for four, it looks like! I love that place. Is Harold's your most visited RF place (other than De Lo's)?

De Lorenzo's, if you count both the original store and the one in Robbinsville, and include takeout, and include Sue's weekly visits with her tennis crowd - my estimate would be about 1000 visits. After that would have to be Mastoris, then it would be a close call between Walter's Hot Dogs, Greasy Nick's, the old Second Avenue Deli, Harold's, Sharkey's, Carnegie Deli, and all the Pepe's Pizzerias.

You're right. It's been too long a time away for me too. Have to pay a return visit

I stopped by Harold's a few months ago when I was in the area. I carried out pastrami, brisket, and rye bread. The meats were delicious and I would definitely go back for carry out. However, I would not want to eat there. The portions are so rediculously large that either the entire table wants to share one or two entrees or you are taking a lot of food home. Not what I want in a restaurant. The gimmick seems to work very well for them but not for me.

One important note: Harold's is NOT a chain or franchise. The other "Harold's New York Deli's" in New Jersey are not related to the one in Edison. The one in Parsippany (which apparently is now out of business) was OK, but not great, and the one in Lyndhurst, well, here's what I had to say about it a couple of years back (note that it's in the forums, so don't click here if you don't want your "last visit" updated): http://www.roadfood.com/Forums/fb.ashx?m=491939

It,s a pilgrimage destination for me, rather than a regular place. But, given the paucity of deli in Northern Delaware,it is always an oasis
