The older lady running the deli with the great smile is a gem, what a gem ❤

[@elizabradley4797]

Groucho Marx used to come for a Pastrami on Rye daily at the back door. I worked in the 5900 building on Wilshire & sometimes treated myself to Canters.

[@flipflopsguy8868]

miss you Huel, the baker lady was adorable and the accents ! bless them all where ever they are.

[@darklordojeda]

Most of them are gone now. Their spirit lives on though. Nice people.

[@bmepdoc9675]

Used to work for Sam at the gas station on the southwest corner of Fairfax and Oakwood back in the 70's. Canters was always the place for a great pastrami sandwich and matzah ball ( knaidelech) soup. Fantastic.

Now it's become fuckboy central with overpriced tacky nonsense all over the poor place.

[@quinftbl]

Canters is the best.

[@robertescobar7781]

I love how I tuned in to learn about canters and hear people talk about one of my favorite restaurants but it turned into a conversation about how hard it is to live in LA. Yes it’s hard and it’s a sore topic when we talk about our personal struggles out here but when we’re at canters and we get a bowl of matzo ball soup, a pastrami sandwich and those sour pickles our cares melt away for a short while.

[@veggiedisease123]

This must've been filmed shortly after the riots.

[@JustMe-cr6rd]

I noticed that too. Most annoying episode so far. I loved Huell but he misses the mark with some human interactions, I applaud the Canter family for their patience.

[@darklordojeda]

@@veggiedisease123 The guy from North Carolina said he had arrived 2 months prior to the filming of the episode and they just missed the riots. So you would be correct.

[@christianp4796]

Wow! Huell is asking some serious philosophical life questions here!

[@skywolf2012]

Russian Jewish bakery on Santa Monica and Fairfax is good.

[@RoyAH.]

So awesome! Thank you KCET!

[@andrewsandoz8005]

We relocated to the SF Valley from the Fairfax area and go back to Cantors often. It's really a Southern California gem. Thanks for sharing Huell.

[@RubenResidential]

My cousin Gary is so young here! The restaurant still looks exactly the same!!

[@garyny4073]

Is that really your cousin tiff ? I drove past it awhile back and said to myself that's that famous deli where Guns n roses use to hang out !

[@RubenResidential]

@@garyny4073 Yes! Gary Canter is really my cousin. He passed a few years ago :( I have a picture of Axel and Slash standing up at Marc's wedding years ago.

@@RubenResidential sorry about your cousin , he must have been still young before he went , who's marc , is that the other canter guy I've seen on Tv On various documentaries about guns n roses 🌹 and such ? I'll have to check out that place my next trip soon to LA !

[@RubenResidential]

@@garyny4073 Thank you so much for your condolences 🙏. Marc is Gary's brother. He is now running Canter's Deli and is the one on the Guns N Roses documentaries. You should definitely visit Canter's, you won't be sorry!!

Do you know when this was filmed?

I'm amazed Huell didn't show us the bakery upstairs.

Pastrami sammich was $6.75 in '92 and now in 2020 its about $16!!! still a great place

[@skywolf2012]

track suit coke head looks like the wheelchair kid from BadNewsBesrs.

[@RedBud315]

I used to live in the Fairfax neighborhood around 1974-75 and went there once in a while. I liked the decadent Pastrami Burritos at Oki dogs more than sandwiches. I figured this must have been around 92-93 since he mentioned the riots. I moved away in 93 but, still go to visit friends and family. Most of the time I stop at one of The Hat locations since they have more of them and their sandwiches are identical at every one of them. They are up to $11.75 now.

[@ericlopez9107]

Huell was VERY flirty with the young buck from North Carolina!! Go get your Mack on huell!!!😘

[@brycenemehia4340]

Good eye Eric Lopez l!! Your observation is spot on!! Huell was a filthy hound and that strapping young lad was EXACTLY his type. He had a sparkle in his eye, no doubt a boner in his pants, and I’m sure off camera slipped him directions to his desert compound, where he was known to host wild crazy parties for military boys and marine types (true story).

[@Mr22thou]

Yeah. So much for Canters! And he dropped the interview with the old lady like a hot potato. Funny!

[@joealexandra7185]

@@Mr22thou And she really felt it, poor lady -- it was a really uncomfortable moment. But he couldn't control himself, and I get that as well, but it is no less unpleasant to witness. Still, God Bless Huell, and I hope he did have fun parties.

[@darklordojeda]

@@Mr22thou Lol, yeah I was saying the same thing when that came up. He just forgot all about her. She was definitely not happy with the way it went.

[@Angellady11]

Well, Huell was bisexual

[@Mr22thou]

Those sandwiches! I used to love those triple decker Jewish deli sandwiches. I wonder if Canters is still there. Most of the places I used to go are all gone now. And I'm gone too. I no longer live in L.A.

[@bassboat_mafia1266]

its still there

[@flipflopsguy8868]

As Ralph Story said, You are part of "Things That Aren't Here Anymore" in Los Angeles, do yourself a favor a keep the good memories and don't bother coming to see it now, if you care, it will break your heart.

[@Mr22thou]

@@flipflopsguy8868 Yeah, I know. I've lived about 100 miles outside L.A. for almost 9 years now & I drive into L.A. once in a while for some reason or another. There are a few things I still enjoy, like Olvera Street, Philippe's, the Natural History Museum & the Getty Museum, but none are quite what they used to be. And the traffic is horrendous. How do people live with that everyday? But I have so many fond memories. Gawd I had tons of fun for a good long time.

From what year is this from?

[@stevedouglas7375]

I'm with you Eddie Cantor Fanatic. I don't know why KCET doesn't let us viewers know what year the video was taken in. They could "easily" include that in their one sentence description above. GLARING omission on their part. Tons of people ask this very question on the other Huell/KCET videos throughout the various episodes shown on You Tube.

[@lifter0153]

Around 19:30 Man says "we been here 3 months just missed the riots" LA riots were in May 1992. Why do American Jews vote for Democrats when dems offer nothing but hate and anti Israel?

[@veggiedisease123]

It was filmed shortly after the riots ('92), but didn't air until October of '93.

Lol Huell was kinda aggro in his earlier interviews.

[@brycenemehia4340]

This may have been posted in 2018, but this is episode is ANCIENT history! So funny to see Huell in his younger years, ‘shmoozing waitresses’ ...when it was well known he was gayer than all get out - with a special fetish for Marines and military types, and would host weekend-long ‘work it out’ parties at his compound in the desert!

[@bassboat_mafia1266]

Whats with the Fairfax obsession the guy doesn't care about it its obvious he had no info about it but let's keep asking lol

[@RMA_DNA]

Time warp

[@andrewdalton2220]

I always found Huell to be extremely obnoxious. I get so irritated listening to him, I would yell...shut up...let them talk!!!! I think during this film in 1992, Huell found his match...Gary Canter. Gary was a great guy. I knew him from when I worked at Canter's Deli in the early 2000s for a year while attending college. During my year at Canter's, I never saw Gary talk as much as he did on this video. I very seldom saw Gary talk at all. I really hope Canter's pulls itself together and make their deli a great place to go to again.

[@andrewdalton2220]

@Steve Jones No. Gary passed away two years ago in December.

[@phongphong4640]

I Love Huell Howser for his Mastery in doing his job. His voice is unique, and it's a part of him. I admire Huell's ability to mingle with all sorts of people and bring out all kinds of Fun interactions. I have learned so much about human nature from watching Huell's shows. It has magically enhanced my communication skills with people--all sorts of people!!!

[@alexandermarquis6197]

Huell needs to chill he's to pushy at times

[@jimvinespresents...8463]

It's his being "pushy" that keeps the show moving forward. If he weren't, the show would come to a dead stop much of the time. Huell is the reason the show is so great.

[@Cityofruin]
