Wilensky's Light Lunch

Mile End · Lunch counter · $

This is a piece of living history, not a meal you customize. The Wilensky Special — grilled bologna and salami on a roll with mustard — comes with mustard whether you like it or not, and they will not cut it in half. Those are the rules.

A 1932 lunch counter with one sandwich, its own rules, and a soda fountain. The Special, and don't ask them to cut it.
