September 2004 Best of Silver Spring
Though Parkway is no Katz's, it does have its charms. The pickle bar is one. An elixir-like matzo-ball soup is another. Matzo balls that are light instead of leaden, a robust broth, eggy noodles, and tender chicken make for a comforting bowl. Chopped chicken liver goes it alone on the good rye or as a schmear on corned beef and pastrami, which though lean, make an acceptable sandwich. Stuffed cabbage and stuffed derma with gravy also have their fans.Sable is the best of the smoked-fish choices--smoked Nova Scotia salmon and whitefish are also available. Parkway has a large local following; at lunchtime and on weekends the place is jammed. It also has the feel of a place that's been there forever. And in a world where real delis are being replaced by chains, that counts.
