Knishes
* Knishes.
Jeff Eats just got this email from reader JWO…
Hey Jeff,
Just read your Nathan’s story.
Down here from Brooklyn over 24 years.
Just a quick test for you a former New Yoorker circa 1950.
Name the 3 best knish joints that NYC had in the 50s-70s.
I know its a judgment call but I’d love to see where your head is on the subject.
By the way, nobody beats Nathan’s fries.

Too Easy!
By the way Yonah Shimmel in Manhattan is still open.
jeff, have gotten knishes from all three.
all were great. my favorite was shatzkin’s.
as you correctly mentioned Yonah Shimmel is still open.
You read my mine.
Exactly, shatzkin, shimmel, stahl. We use to call them the 3’S.
I personally liked shatzkin the best.
Shimmel is still in business.
Great picks.
Whose got good knishes in south Florida?
Try Pita Nosh in the food court at the Festival Flea Market in a Pompano Beach. They make their own and they are delicious.
Flakowitz in Boynton Beach has a delicious knish
If you watch Diners Drive Ina and Dives, you will see that Flakowitz puts butter in their Knishes. If you are Kosher be aware.
If you are kosher you wouldn’t be eating there at all!!
Zinger’s Deli in Boca has delicious knishes.
By the way I use to live down the block from Mrs. stahlx’s in the 70’s. Great knishes.
Who here remember Ruby The Knishman who sold knishes from a pushcart in Canarsie?
He made and sold the most delicious potato knishes.
He also had a truck that went around to the Bungalow Colonies in the 1950’s – the 1970’s
Knish Knosh in Queens has been around since 1952. They make great knishes.
Knish Knosh a few years ago opened in s Florida but didn’t make it. I had their kasha and potato when they were here and they were just ok. But nothing great.
The guy at the Festival Flea Market makes better ones.
Why can’t I get a meat knish here in South Florida like I did in NYC?
Does anyone remember Jerry’s from the Boardwalk in the Rockaways and then Queens Blvd. in Forest Hill. They made some great Knishes.
Ive eaten my fair share of knishes.
Nobody’s beat Shatzkin’s.
We are located at the border of Broward and Palm Beach county in The Fesftival Flea Market food court. Daily baked Knishes.
Went to Yonah Shimmel today and had potato and kasha knishes. Amazing.
Great recommendation.
