NOW OPEN: May’s Gourmet Café & Deli
Mae Vong, who’s run a business at the corner of 19th and Christian since 1985, says an influx of new residents to the neighborhood motivated her to revamp her grocery into May’s Gourmet Café & Deli, which opened to the public yesterday.
There are general grocery items for sale at the deli (1845 Christian St., 215-55645-1052), which offers both takeout and delivery. They’re doing drinks, smoothies, ice cream, La Colombe coffee, salads, wraps and deli sandwiches using Dietz & Watson meat and cheese. (One interestingly named one we want to get next time — “The Nigerian,” with turkey, turkey salami and roast beef. Nothing says West Africa quite like turkey salami!) In the next few days, Vong adds, they’ll start serving banh mi and bubble tea.
May’s is open daily from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., but they may end up closing a little early on Sundays.
