It's a safe city. Don't do stupid things like count out hundred dollar bills on the street corner.
THE deli to go to is Katz's - the best pastrami and corned beef and by far the most "New York Flavor". There are two areas - one is self-service and one is waiter service. Definitely sit in self-service - you go up to the counter, order your sandwich and, tip the counterman a dollar or two. He, then, will put much more meat in your sandwich than a waiter will bring you. (A few years ago several reporters went to Katz's with a small scale - some sat in waiter service and some sat in self service - all the self service sandwiches had at least a quarter of a pound more meat).
To add to the New York experience, drink a cream soda or celery tonic with your meal. Sandwiches are big enough to share - get an order of fries and you're all set. My favorite there is tongue and corned beef on a club roll.

It's a LOT safer than it used to be thanks to Rudy Giuliani. The best deli is the "Stage" at 834 7th Avenue (between 53rd & 54th Street). If you're downtown, go to Katz's at 205 E. Houston Street. Both are totally awesome !!!

It's safe. The best delis are a secret. You'll just have to discover your own.
