    Ok..Canters is my favorite LA deli, that said, the fruit cup is ridiculous. Seriously, anyone who appreciates fruit must get one. Better than anywhere else in LA.

    Very old fashioned on everything. Review is for Pastry section only. Very old fashioned. The poppyseed strudel was too sweet to eat. I'm not a fan of Jewish food.
