Yonah Schimmel's Knishes Bakery
Description
Like bagels and lox, knishes have a special place in the hearts of New Yorkers. Knish consists of a filling that is covered in dough which is either baked or fried. Once consumed largely by Jews living in the neighborhood, the knishes at Yonah Schimmel's are now enjoyed by people from all over the city. They will even ship these wonderful and authentic treats via their Web site. The bakery has been open since 1910, and not much has changed since then-it is still run by Yonah Schimmel's heirs, and the knishes at Yonah Schimmel's Knishes Bakery continue to be filled with fresh ingredients like cheese or potatoes and baked daily.
