Happy New Year to everyone! 2012 has arrived and we are looking forward to serving you the best deli fare in the coming year. We are serving Corned Beef and Cabbage today, along with black eyed peas to get your new year off to a "lucky" start. Shapiro's is open until 7 p.m. today. It is just a few short weeks to the most unique experience to ever visit our city - the Super Bowl! You will NOT have properly visited Indianapolis unless you stop by Shapiro's Deli for the best corned beef, pastrami, bakery goods, Jewish deli delights, and kosher-style goodness. Stay tuned for our event schedule. We are likely to have very extended hours so everyone has a chance to experience just why Shapiro's Deli has been family owned and operated for over 100 years!
Shapiro's Deli is proud to be one of the TOP TEN DELIS IN THE COUNTRY according to USA TODAY. This is the place to go if you are looking for well known Jewish style food. Start with our one-of-a-kind corned beef, cooked early every morning in a huge kettle until it is just right. Servers hand trim the meat and it is sliced for you as you order. Pair this with our warm Shapiro rye bread, hand sliced. Potato pancakes (latkes) make a perfect side dish. Some people like them with applesauce, some with sour cream, and some with nothing at all. You might also want to try our cabbage borscht or matzo ball soup. The mazto balls are made from scratch and are everything you would ever want in a matzo ball! How about a chopped liver sandwich? It is quite popular on rye bread with a slice of onion. Step over to the bakery counter and sample the Rugulach. This hand-made pastry is available in apricot, raspberry, chocolate and cinnamon. Most folks order a variety because they are all so delicious! If you are looking for the best place to nosh, look no further than Shapiro's Deli in Indianapolis and Carmel, Indiana.
Shapiro's Deli is family owned and operated since 1905. Brian Shapiro is the fourth generation and current owner of Shapiro's Deli in Indianapolis and Shapiro's Deli in Carmel, Indiana. The delicious offerings on the menu have been handed down from past generations, who arrived in the United States from Odessa, Russia at the turn of the century. Lots of things have changed in this world. The economy makes running a business more difficult every day, but the best things in life are produced by the hard working family owned businesses in this country and Shapiro's Deli is proud to be among them. In addition to the Shapiro family heritage we have generations of employees working too. Wives, sisters, sons, daughters, cousins, you name it - we have it! Yes, Shapiro's Deli is family owned and proudly teaching our future generations the value of good food, hard work, and how to nosh with the best of them! We celebrate our staff this holiday season!

As a new member of Weight Watchers, I just want to tell everyone that you CAN enjoy good food even when you are watching your weight. If you are looking for a place to nosh in Indianapolis, stop by Shapiro's Deli. There are plenty of options for those who are following the new Points Plus Weight Watcher program. We have lots of fresh fruit - which are now ZERO points! I have often enjoyed a 6 ounce chopped steak dinner with green beans, onions, and a side of fruit. This is a 10 point meal, which leaves plenty of room for the rest of your day if you are on the 29 minimum daily points. Our sandwiches are approximately 6 1/2 ounces of meat. Look up the points value in your Pocket Guide for the meat you choose. Feel free to order a sandwich with no bread if that works for you. Another favorite of mine is the made-from-scratch vegetable soup. One bowl is approximately 6 points. With two packets of Saltine crackers you only spend 8 points total on this filling and healthy meal. There are plenty of salads to choose from with fat-free dressing options. It costs me a few extra points, but I frequently have the Caesar salad with chicken for lunch. There is about 4 ounces of chicken, about 1/4 cup of swiss cheese, and a small amount of croutons. These all have point values in your Pocket Guide. If you are having breakfast we offer Egg Beaters or Egg Whites, which are a healthy alternative to whole eggs. It is a challenge to work at one of the best delis in Indianapolis, but thanks to the kosher style food choices I just have to make wise choices. I will leave the dessert choice up to you! You'll have to figure out whether or not you can fit this into your program. Good luck to everyone!

SHAPIRO'S DELI WILL BE FEATURED IN THEIR NEXT SEASON!! Marc Summers, an Indianapolis native, is currently the host of Unwrapped, a popular Food Network show.

Sitting on break the other day I said to my table mates, "Hey, that looks like the Dalai Lama." They scoffed and said "No way - he would have lots of security." I replied, "But he has divine protection, I'm sure. Why would he need more security than that?" That was the end of that. Well evidently he WAS here at Shapiro's! Wish I had paid more attention. These little moments are the interesting part of our days on the job.

We found out today that Indiana Congressman Andre Carson has a friendly arrangement made with Congressman Steve Scalise from New Orleans for the upcoming game between the Indianapolis Colts and the New Orleans Saints. Seems if the Saints lose the game, Congressman Carson's Washington D.C. staff will be receiving some alligator sausage and blackened redfish from the Louisiana region. If the Colts lose (I can barely type those words) Congressman Scalise and his D.C. staff will be receiving some famous Reuben sandwiches from Shapiro's Deli and some sweets from Long's Bakery. We are proud that the best kosher style food served in Indianapolis will be enjoyed by folks from New Orleans - if, and that is a HUGE "IF" - the Saints are victorious. I say fat chance. Enjoy your alligator sausage Congressman Carson. When you come home to Indy please stop by Shapiro's for your Reuben! GO COLTS!
About a month ago several of us at Shapiro's had the pleasure to meet Ted Allen, noted author and television personality. He now is host of two prime-time series on Food Network: Chopped, a culinary competition in which four chefs per episode attempt to cook their way through three courses to win a $10,000 prize, and Food Detectives, which uses scientific experiments to test myths about food. He is a frequent guest on television cooking shows and the author of magazine articles and books. All I can say is that he was so gracious to myself (on the right), Brandy Ison (far left) and Ronda Gude(second on left). Ted grew up in Carmel, Indiana and attended Purdue University. In town to do a photo shoot for Hamilton County, he definitely showed us some Hoosier hospitality! We were fortunate to have our keylime pies in the photo with him. 
Another "foodie" I was fortunate to meet was Marc Summers, who was also raised in Indiana. Marc is an American television personality, comedian, game show host, producer, and a two-time talk show host. He is best known for hosting the Nickelodeon game show Double Dare and currently hosts Unwrapped on The Food Network. He was in our downtown Indianapolis deli last week and was nice enough to let us get a photo. Marc enjoys our peppered beef! You never know who you might run into at Shapiro's Deli! Thank you Marc Summers for your Hoosier hospitality! Yes, we serve the best deli meats in Indianapolis but we also have a lot of other items to offer. How about a Jewish comfort meal like corned beef and cabbage, brisket, or stuffed cabbage?
We also have meatloaf, baked chicken, and stuffed peppers. Don't forget our freshly prepared sides: macaroni and cheese, potato salad, cole slaw, baked beans, potato pancake, and lots more.
The weather is starting to cool down so maybe you'd like to try one of our soups: matzo ball, chicken noodle, cabbage borscht, chili, or one of our soups of the day.
No matter what you're in the mood for, Shapiro's has it all. Come in and enjoy one of our delicious and hearty meals.

n't matter if your flight leaves from Concourse A. Once you have passed through security you are free to visit the shops and restaurants on either Concourse A or B. Take a comforting piece of home with you on the flight.
It's got to be better than "airline food".

If you've ever been to the Indianapolis Deli you surely have seen Russell in the front window cutting our meat every day. Russell has been with Shapiro's for......ever it seems! We found out today Russell is going to have some bypass surgery. We wish him a successful operation and a quick recovery! He has been working in the early, early morning for many years now. No one can cut meat for our meat case like him. He is hands down the best meat cutter in the restaurant. If you ordered a party tray, Russell cut the meat. If you had a catering order, Russell probably cut your meat. If you came in for breakfast, you probably got a "Good Morning" from Russell. If you came in to pick up bagels, Russell took care of you. Everybody think good thoughts for Russell! Hopefully he will be back in the front window of Shapiro's soon.
