Deli dude Russ Cowan opened this west-of-Broad offshoot of the original Famous 4th Street Delicatessen (700 S. Fourth St.) this past Friday. At 60 seats, the new location (38 S. 19th St., 215-568-3271) is basically a boutique version of the Queen Village institution, down to the framed photos, black-and-white tiling and Hebrew National mustard on the table. Same exact menu (check it out in full after the jump) and same exact in-house mentality � they do all their own meat-curing and baking, and all their signature display-case sweets (hamantaschen!) are available, too. While the original's open daily from 8 to 9, this one will keep slightly shorter hours: Mon.-Fri. from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sat.-Sun from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
