Really enjoy Shapiro’s in Indianapolis, and so happy to get to visit this summer as part of our Ohio-ish trip, as we did last year as part of our Detroit-ish trip! Both times, we’ve visited the downtown location — an old-school cafeteria line where one orders sandwiches made on the spot, and sides/salads/desserts ready for the choosing.
Pics interspersed here are from both visits.
Start with desserts and salads
This is how they do deviled eggs:
Cafeteria style, just sliding the tray down until it’s time to put that pastrami on order:
…they also other entrees, like orange roughy, stuffed peppers, swiss steak, short ribs, meatloaf, and lots more…
Here’s where the entree ordering happens — sliced right in front, here
…and these are the latkes!
the requisite Cel-Ray
oh hi, black cherry
a Reuben with coleslaw instead of sauerkraut (so a Rachel and still pastrami, but they call it a NY Reuben)
Plain pastrami
Reuben
They have other counters, for take-home. Meats and cheeses
Breads
Dessert
It’s quick and yummy and we’re getting in the groove of thinking it’s a summertime thing now to go up there. Also, I’m completely in love with the museum of art in Indianapolis — Newfields — and that’s going to require a 1x/year visit. More on Newfields soon. xoxo!
