Hurricane Sandy: 124 year old Deli continues to run on candles

(NewsPoint) – Some New Yorkers whose homes lost electricity may have to wait more than two weeks to get it back especially if their homes are the only ones on the block that lost power during the storm, utility officials said Thursday.

But some are not letting the lack of electricity stopping them.

Katz, a deli that has survived three depressions, numerous recessions and two World Wars is continuing to operate using candles and a cash only bar. Described by many as the best deli in NYC, the deli has been operating since 1888.
