Jewish Soul Food.

The New York Observer calls Barney Greengrass "the supreme achievement of Jewish-American civilization." The Upper West Side store has been one of New York City's beloved traditions since 1908, and throngs of the faithful cheerfully wait in long lines for their turn to be served the best Sturgeon, Nova Scotia Salmon, Sable and Kippered/Baked Salmon.

Barney Greengrass There may be other establishments that offer similar fare, but New Yorkers in the know crowd into the kitschy smoked fish shop for the familiar comfort of leatherette chairs and formica-top tables. There is no better place to purchase the ingredients for what America considers a classic New York breakfast.

Celebrity sightings have changed with the times -- while it was once Groucho Marx, Irving Berlin, and Al Jolson, now it's Alec Baldwin, Matthew Broderick, and Jerry Seinfeld.

Another Taste of New York
Bagels came to New York in the 1880s, with the immigration of hundreds of thousands of Eastern European Jews. Vendors used to thread the hole-shaped bread onto dowels and hawk them on street corners. Today, at Broadway and 80th street, New York's fabled H&H Bagels boils, then bakes 80,000 bagels every day. New Yorkers, the toughest bagel critics in the country, named these traditional New York style bagels "best of the best." CLICK HERE for more information.
