Andy Baron, a Potomac banker, is a big fan of delis. Close to home, his favorite is Brooklyn’s Deli at Potomac Woods Plaza, 1089 Seven Locks Road. “It’s the kind of old-school place where the owner walks around and wants people to taste what he’s made,” Baron says. His standing order is the weekday-only sandwich special shown here: half corned beef/half pastrami on rye, served with mustard and a half-sour pickle. “The pastrami at Brooklyn’s is hand-cut, and the corned beef is really lean,” Baron says. “I’d put it up against any deli from here to New York.”
