Lonely Planet review for Yonah Schimmel Knishery

Here's how to make a living the old-school way: buy a pushcart c 1890, sell your wife's knishes on Coney Island, save up for a mini storefront on the Lower East Side, and turn it into a century-old family business that still follows the original recipe and uses a century-old dumbwaiter to haul potato, cheese, cabbage and kasha knishes up from your wood-burning stove in the cellar. One bite of a Yonah Schimmel knish and you'll be hooked.

    knishes

    alansbarsky does not recommend this,

    since the demise of mrs. stahl's knishes, these are the best potato and kasha knishes in the city - plus there's a good movie theater nearby
