  • My son Seth and I took to the streets of Hasidic Williamsburg looking for the best potato knish ever. This was filmed what feels like a lifetime ago and I put it on the back burner. Today I'm sharing this little peek with you all.

    I grew up eating knishes as a kid on 13 Ave. I didn’t realize how much I’d miss them when I moved away for school and then again after starting my family. I try to get some whenever we go home so my daughter will know the glory of a hot crispy knish with mustard. My mouth was watering just watching this one!

The highlight of visiting her in NY, was enjoying her cooking and especially knishes. Recipes were never written down, a little of this, a little of that, and they tasted the same every time. A taste that will never be replicated. Love your content.

    As much as I enjoyed watching this fun video. I'm going to have to take issue with the verdict. I don't think it is fair to judge by eating 45 knishes within an hour. Even if the last one was the whole world's favorite, someone who is already 'knished out' won't be able to enjoy it. So thank you for introducing us to all these eateries, but let us all go taste for ourselves. And maybe we'll like all of them equally. Maybe post links to the online info of these stores so it will be easier for us to find them.

    I spent a lot of time in Manhattan between 1969 and 1980, but the only knishes I had were from food cart. They weren't very good. What you are showing looks a lot better. I have cousins in Brooklyn but I doubt they were aware of the growing Hasidic community and its food.

      I think the foodies have yet to discover the Hasidic community's food cultures. Ashkenazi Jewish food has such a bad reputation. But the truth is that Hungarian Hasidim are extremely into cooking and there's an incredibly rich food culture worth checking out.

    I am a a Lubavitcher but whichever fleish is cheaper be it Lubavitch,Satmar,Debrecin & ,Breuer's,etc. as long as it is glatt or mehadrin I eat it. My community has the same thing some will eat only Lubavitcher Fleish & then some within in Lubavitch rival factions will not eat from one another & then you have those like me & I am a retired mashgiach so I know they are all the same as long as it is a frum community so I do not play politics & buy whosever is cheaper!! Outside of NY one can get frozen meal mart/Schreiber/Alle packing for way cheaper than any of the others!!! Besides when I was divorced it was easier eating by Belzer or Skverer relatives & not asking any questions :)

      I appreciate what you're saying! The politics over whose butcher you go to is absurd.

      It's not that simple. Different communities have different demands when it comes to kashrus. If your local rabbi tells you NOT to eat from a different kashrus, there might be good reason for that. The irgun shiurei torah channel has many rabbis in the field explaining this. Some even in english.

    Great street scene video ! All look good but I like Steinberg’s Bakery on Clymer Street for a good knish.

    I live in a Jewish neighborhood in Baltimore and a great knish is something wonderful to eat ❤
