These Jewish baked goods made the New York Times' list of '25 Essential Pastries' in NYC - Jewish Telegraphic Agency
"if you spot a line somewhere, there's a very good chance there are baked goods at the end of it - T: The New York Times Style Magazine has assembled a list of " The 25 Essential Pastries to Eat in New York City. " Among those on the list are several Jewish treats, including a buttery, chocolatey babka that's made New Yorkers' mouths water since 2013 and a tiny knish filled with sauerkraut and dill from a buzzy new bakery on the Lower East Side."
"Opened in 2021 by Brooklyn-based Jewish chef Jeremy Salamon, Agi's Counter (818 Franklin Ave.) was inspired by Salamon's grandmother, Agi, a Hungarian Jew and a Holocaust survivor. "Most people, when they hear Hungarian, if they have any idea the first thing that comes to mind is probably paprika or goulash - maybe chicken paprikás," Salamon, a James Beard Award-nominated chef, told the New York Jewish Week last summer. "The concept is so limited.""
