To the Shareholders of
One Hundred Seventy-Second
Collins Corp. d/b/a Rascal House


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of One Hundred Seventy-Second
Collins Corp. d/b/a Rascal House as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
related statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows
for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of One Hundred Seventy-Second
Collins Corp. d/b/a Rascal House as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.       Organization and Business:

         One Hundred Seventy-Second Collins Corp. d/b/a Rascal House, (the
"Company") was incorporated in the state of Florida and commenced operations on
December 10, 1953.  The Company owns and operates the Rascal House restaurant
in Miami Beach, Florida.


2.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

         Cash and Cash Equivalents

         All highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three
months or less from the date of purchase are considered cash equivalents.  The
Company currently maintains all of its cash balances with a single financial
institution.  At times, these cash balances may be in excess of Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation insurance limits.

         Inventories

         Inventories, which consist of food, beverages and supplies, are stated
at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.

         Equipment and Leasehold Improvements

         Equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost.  Additions,
major renewals and betterments are capitalized, while normal repairs and
maintenance are expensed as incurred.  Depreciation is computed using
accelerated or straight-line methods over the estimated useful lives of the
assets ranging from 5-20 years.  Leasehold improvements are amortized on a
straight-line basis over the lease terms or estimated useful lives of the
assets, whichever is shorter.  When items are sold or otherwise disposed of,
the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts
and any resulting gains or losses are recognized.

         Income Taxes

         The Company, with the consent of its shareholders, has elected to be
treated as an S-Corporation.  Accordingly, the accompanying financial
statements do not reflect a provision for income taxes since each shareholder's
proportional share of the Company's taxable income or loss is reported by each
of the shareholders on their individual income tax returns.

         Use of Estimates

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


2.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

         New Accounting Pronouncements

         For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of
Financial Instruments," which requires disclosure of fair value information
relating to financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance
sheet.  In the opinion of management, the fair values of the Company's
financial instruments approximate their respective carrying values.

         For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Company also adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of,"
which, in general, requires that such impaired assets be written down to a
reduced carrying value.  In the opinion of management, no long-lived assets
have impaired values.  Accordingly, this standard did not impact the Company's
financial statements.

         Unaudited Interim Financial Information

         The unaudited balance sheet as of June 30, 1996 and the unaudited
statements of income and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30,
1996 and 1995 and the unaudited statement of changes in shareholders' equity
for the six months ended June 30, 1996 (collectively, "interim financial
information"), are unaudited and have been prepared on the same basis as the
audited financial statements included herein.  In the opinion of the Company's
management, the interim financial information includes all adjustments,
consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement
of the results of the interim periods.

         The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996, may
not be indicative of the operating results to be achieved for the full year or
any other interim period.

3.       Restricted Cash:

         In accordance with an agreement to waive all bank service charges, a
minimum balance of $189,000 must be maintained in the bank account at all
times.  As this amount is not legally restricted, it is included in cash and
cash equivalents in the accompanying financial statements.

4.       Note Receivable:

         Effective July 1, 1989 the Company sold 20 shares of its common stock
to an employee for an aggregate of $40,000, evidenced by a 9% note which is
payable in annual installments of $4,000, plus interest, through July 1998.
The payment due July 1995 had not yet been received as of December 31, 1995.

5.       Commitments:

         The Company leases its restaurant facilities under the terms of a
noncancelable lease which expires October 31, 1997.  The lessor is a
partnership whose partners are, directly or indirectly, shareholders or
relatives of shareholders of the Company.  The lease provides for additional
rentals which may result from increases in the Consumer Price Index determined
as of October 31, 1982, and each succeeding five-year period thereafter.  The
lease also provides for additional rentals based on a percentage of sales in
excess of stipulated amounts with a specified maximum.  The Company is also
required to pay property taxes, insurance and sales tax on the rental payments.
The lease payments are modified annually by agreement with the partnership.
Aggregate minimum base rental payments are scheduled to be approximately
$208,500 for 1996.

         The following schedule shows the composition of total rent expense for
the operating lease:

6.       Employee Benefit Plan:

         The Company has instituted an employee benefit plan (401(k)) which
provides for basic and supplemental employee contributions and requires the
Company to match the employee's basic contribution.  The Company is also
required to make an additional contribution for employees based on a percentage

ITEM 7.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS 

                 (b)      Pro Forma Financial Statements

     Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations  and Condensed Consolidated
                                Balance Sheet

         These unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations are
presented as if the purchase of certain assets and restaurant operations from
One Hundred Seventy-Second Collins Corp., d/b/a Rascal House ("172 Corp."), and
the purchase of the land and building from a partnership owned by certain
shareholders and relatives of the shareholders of 172 Corp., collectively
referred to as "Rascal House", had occurred as of January 1, 1995. The
unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet is presented as if the
purchase of certain assets had occurred on June 30, 1996.  These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial
Statements of Jerry's Famous Deli, Inc. ("JFD") and the Notes thereto, included
in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.  In
management's opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the purchase of
Rascal House with JFD have been made.

         The unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations are not
necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations of Jerry's
Famous Deli, Inc. and 172 Corp. would have been had the acquisition actually
occurred as of January 1, 1995, nor do they purport to represent the results of
operations for future periods.

         Funding of the purchase of Rascal House came primarily from the sale
of 6,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (annual dividends are
$80 per share, paid quarterly in arrears) and a warrant (exercisable for 65,000
shares of common stock at $1.00 per share) to Yucaipa Waterton Deli Investors,
L.L.C. ("Yucaipa") (see Form 8-K filed September 4, 1996), resulting in net
proceeds of approximately $5,540,000.

(1)   Records the net increase in cash and cash equivalents as a result of net
      proceeds received from the issuance of 6,000 shares of 8% convertible
      preferred stock to Yucaipa on August 30, 1996 of approximately
      $5,540,000 less the net purchase price of $4,924,000 for the
      acquisition of certain assets of Rascal House.

(2)   The purchase price of $4,924,000 was allocated to the following: $50,000
      to inventory; a $29,000 reduction to prepaid property taxes; $1,064,000
      to land; $1,300,000 to building and $594,000 to building improvements,
      property and equipment which are depreciated on a straight-line basis
      over 30 and 4 years, respectively; $184,000 for a covenant not to
      compete, which is amortized on a straight-line basis over 2 years;  and
      the balance of approximately $1,761,000 to goodwill, which is amortized
      on a straight-line basis over 30 years.  Other than inventory and land,
      building, building improvements, property and equipment, no other
      assets were acquired.  In addition, no debt or other liabilities were
      assumed from 172 Corp. or the related party.
