The Reuben is standard fare in the East. I don't eat it because I don't
eat meat. Back when I used to eat meat (way long ago) it was a favorite of
mine too. I guess they still serve them, along with tuna melts and all the
other fun things. They were big in diners. Now you'd probably have to go
to a tavern type establishment or deli to get one.
