  The blueberry cheese knish was so good and was generously filled. We are going to keep coming back here and wonder why we only tried it now.




Update: Went back on a Sunday and then soon after I got sick. Hygiene issues in this place.

  Old world knishes since 1910. Best in the city. Soft like a pillow, same recipe since the day they opened.

  One thing that I hope never changes is the potato knish from Yonah Shimmel. About the size of a bagel, and fluffy potato, so not heavy. It makes a satisfying side dish for a meal or a very substantial snack. Even my finicky relatives never having tried one love them.

I do too.
