Louie was standing in front of Joe's Superette at 349 Smith Street. The lunchtime rush was over and he was taking a break from making those delicious sandwiches for which Joe's Deli is famous.
"The kids sometimes call me Louie Balls" he told me.
I smiled.
Of course they would. Anyone who has ever eaten the delectable Prosciutto balls, or the rice and cheese balls which are the deli's specialties, would give Louie that nickname.
If you haven't had one yet, make sure to stop by. Louie will set you up with a few balls. And tell him Katia sent you!

I once had to wait in a very long line because I really wanted to try a sandwich from Joe's Deli. I had to give up because I was running late. Now I really will try that line again!
I love Joe's Superette--I used to have lunch there when I worked in the neighborhood--my fave--mozzarella-sun dried tomatos on Italian bread!!the mozzarella balls rock as do the rice and cheese balls!!Love this place.
