Shops with slicers, also known as DELIS (5 letters), are retail stores that specialize in selling prepared foods such as sandwiches, salads, and other ready-to-eat items. They often have a deli counter where customers can purchase freshly sliced meats and cheeses. DELIS may also offer a variety of other products, such as canned goods, condiments, and beverages. Many DELIS also provide catering services for special events.
