Hamilton Deli or Ham Del is a small sandwich shop/supermarket on Amsterdam between 115th and 116th Streets. It was established in 1991. Get the VIP card and you'll get a free sandwich after 10 purchases.
Ham Del has awesome sandwiches and rapid-fire service. It also has cleverly-named burgers, delicious breakfast sandwiches, overstuffed heroes, and a fresh salad bar that's better than the ones at Strokos and Milano Market.
Unfortunately, it's often infested with law and business students.
ABC Special
The ABC Special is a sandwich which is not on the menu at Hamilton Deli. To get it, you have to know what it is and ask for it specifically. It is:
- Chicken salad wrapped in cheddar cheese
- Optional lettuce and tomatoes
- Placed between two slices of buttered toast
It's fattalicious. And cheap.
There also exists the Watson House variation, which adds bacon to sandwich. When forged in this way, the ABC becomes a Holy Trinity of sandwiches, being at once: (1) a grilled cheese, (2) a chicken salad sandwich, and (3) a BLT. The bacon also adds a crunch that some argued was missing from this masterpiece.
Tour de Ham Del
The Tour de Ham Del is a grueling gamut run only by the stout of heart. To complete it, one must consume at least one of every single type of combination hero at Hamilton Deli. Do not forget the ones on the red and green signs on the side. This is 29 sandwiches in all, including the elusive Philly Chicken Steak. Rob Trump completed it and he is awesome. He didn't even like eating the tuna melt but he did it for love of the game. Peter Mende-Siedlecki completed it several weeks later--he didn't mind eating the tuna melt; he did it for the love of Rob Trump.
