Famous 4th Street Delicatessen

At Queen Village's Famous 4th Street Delicatessen, the matzo ball soup is the dish to order: a not-too-salty chicken broth with bowtie pasta, vegetables that still have bite, shredded chicken and a schmaltzy matzo ball the size of a softball. The matzo balls are sinkers, not floaters, so they hold together when cut with the side of a spoon to share. The soup comes in a normal bowl or a large metal bowl with its own ladle.
