Wagshal’s Historical Highlights
"If you have time or if you don't, Wagshal's has dinner for you. Between the two—the delicatessen, a Washington institution since 1925, or the market, located a few doors down in the same strip—you can find dinner ready-to-eat, dinner to heat and serve, or dinner to prepare and cook yourself."

Washington Post Food Section - A Sweet Search for Pies That Produce Sighs - November 18, 2004
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A56125-2004Nov17.html

"The apple pie from Wagshal's Bakery and Catering in the District is nearly as deep and makes a stunning presentation when cut, revealing layers and layers of thinly sliced apples...(some) raved about how the great apple taste wasn't masked by too much sweetness. The bakery is just behind Wagshal's Butcher Shop and Wagshal's Delicatessen, where the pies are sold. Sylvia Alexander, manager of the six-year-old bakery, said the Granny Smith apples for the pies are peeled and prepared right there. "

WAGSHAL'S DELICATESSEN AND WAGSHAL'S MARKET
Spring Valley

"If you have time or if you don't, Wagshal's has dinner for you. Between the two—the delicatessen, a Washington institution since 1925, or the market, located a few doors down in the same strip—you can find dinner ready-to-eat, dinner to heat and serve, or dinner to prepare and cook yourself.

The best in the ready-to-eat category was the shepherd's pie, a pan piled high with beef, beans, and peas and topped with mashed potatoes and cheese. The Greek salad, with nice chunks of feta, tomatoes, olives, and peppers, is another standout.

In the heat-and-serve section, complete dinners, with instructions for heating, are packed for people who need to grab and go. Get the meatloaf, good comfort food; the rice-and-beans combination, sort of a poor man's jambalaya; or the mild chicken curry. Beware the tomato pasta, which looks innocuous enough to serve to a child but was incendiary. On your way out, select a slice of Wagshal's house-made pound cake—lemon or chocolate with a hint of almond.

If you have time to make dinner, stop in at the market, where two impressive meat and fish counters boast a wide variety of cuts of beef, as well as crabcakes, marinated London broil, and kebabs ready to grill. There are also a handsome selection of produce, a salad bar, breads, ready-made sandwiches, homemade pastas and sauces, and a number of huge fresh fruit pies."
