"Dubbed the first-ever Russ & Daughters Day, the event coincides with the release of the family's very first cookbook, Russ & Daughters: 100 Years of Appetizing . To mark the occasion, they're teaming up with Orchard Street's indie bookstore P&T Knitwear for a jam-packed schedule of freebies and community happenings. Think walking tours, scavenger hunts, photo exhibitions, live podcast tapings and, yes, bagels on the house."
"Here's what's on the menu: Starting at 10am, P&T Knitwear will open its doors for a daylong lineup of events. Visitors can spin a prize wheel for giveaways, peruse a Russ & Daughters photography exhibition and pick up pre-signed copies of the new cookbook. If you need fuel, show your purchase receipt between 10am and noon and score a free bagel-and-coffee combo (while supplies last)."
"For explorers, a self-guided scavenger hunt across the LES promises a seriously New York prize: a $500 gift basket stuffed with Russ & Daughters goodies and neighborhood treats. Complete it and you're in the running-no need to be present at the 5 pm drawing to win. History buffs will want to grab one of the extremely limited RSVPs for the walking tours. At 11am, fourth-generation co-owner Niki Russ Federman will lead guests through the family's favorite LES landmarks."
