A neighborhood deli near the New York office of Arent Fox has put the law firm in the same category as celebrities like David Letterman and Regis Philbin, who also work in the vicinity.

The Hello Deli has named a sandwich after Arent Fox. Featuring hot ham or turkey and melted brie on a hero, with lettuce and tomato, “It’s one of those honors that’s always in good taste,” Michael Blass, who heads the firm’s New York office, tells the Wall Street Journal Law Blog.

At one point, the Hello Deli had a second sandwich named after another law firm, but it was eliminated in a cost-cutting move a few years ago.
