About JamesandKarla:
Hey everyone! We are husband-and-wife architectural/interior photographers based in NYC. We started our video channel to act an artistic intervention to help raise awareness of the importance of small independently-owned businesses and the unique character these shops add to the streets and neighborhoods of New York City.
In our videos we will showcase portraits of storefronts and shop owners in New York City & capture moments of city life that capture the spirit, energy and cultural diversity of individual neighborhoods. We also bring our dog, Hudson along whenever we can.
We made it our mission to thoroughly document unique 'mom-and-pop' stores when we began to notice the alarming rate at which they were disappearing. Our critically acclaimed books include “STORE FRONT: The Disappearing Face of New York”, “New York Nights”, “STORE FRONT II- A History Preserved” and “Broken Windows-Graffiti NYC”.
Come see the city & subscribe to our channel :)

Moishes is a gem been there many times in the past. It's like stepping back in times.
Great capture of the guy playing guitar at 7:55 - a taste of old school LES!
Food and Footprints glad you liked him! He is a true New York character!! 😎
Some of these places remind me so much of my grandma. Thank you for this video ❤️
I Love Hudson 💘
Nice video! Enjoyed the tour. Delicious looking food, and Mr. Shimon has some velvet pipes
Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback m. Yes all the food we had on our food tour was amazing. Shimon definitely has pipes!
Moishe’s looks like such a classic! The interior looks like it has been the same for years! Also noticed the old gate on the outside next to Hudson
Food and Footprints thank you so much for watching! Moishe’s is definitely a classic and has been around since at least the 1970s but possibly even before as we asked the owner but she honestly couldn’t remember the exact date and just waved and said it’s older than you! And yes the old gate was a good place for Hudson to chill as he wanted to eat everything we were talking about!
Love the video and your leather jacket😀
Diane B thank you so much for the love 😀 and that you also like my leather MC jacket (it’s by Schott NYC).
I just found out I have Jewish in my heritage. So I truly enjoyed this video. Some of these food I have been eating my whole life and never knew the link.
That is so cool Kalia. We are so glad you enjoyed watching our Jewish Food tour video and discovered and learned some interesting things about the food and the neighborhood!
The Jewish neighborhood backed in the 1940 50s. 60s even 70s lower East Side in New York City. What's just wonderful? Great food restaurants today. Nothing left.
Those days are gone but that's forgotten ✡️💯👍
Sammy’s looks doubly charming watching through the the eyes of 2021 isolation here. Brought back childhood memories of growing up in North London Jewish neighbourhoods. Thanks for making me smile. Lovely video.
Jenny, We are so glad our video brought a smile to your face especially during this difficult time. We hope you are staying safe and healthy and also enjoy watching some of our videos highlighting unique places and small businesses in NYC & beyond.
Really enjoyed this!😁❤️
Those sweets and pastries though 😍😍😍 oh my gosh
FitAngie they are all so delicious! We highly recommend everything they bake! Thank you so much for watching 😍
Doing research for this week :)
We can also visit Michaeli’s bakery too! Their pastries are amazing!
I just subscribed from you channel thank you Barr
Even I must admit there is good in many bad?
I have respect for Your early work, very insightful indeed???
Your truth have set many free, including Me! 👨🏽🎓
Nice. I want to stop at Michaeli the next time I pass through NYC.
Wow Yummy food... Nice upload...👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
made in comboran thank you so much for watching and for the the kind words about our video! We highly recommend the black and white cookie from Moishe’s and the boureka we had from Michaeli’s. And the atmosphere alone is Sammy’s is worth it!
@@JamesandKarla GBU...greetings from indonesia....👍👍👍👍👍
made in comboran wishing you all the best from rainy and chilly New York City!
Love your vlogs and spirit - thank you so much!
Venessa, thank you so much for the love and great words of support. We really appreciate it and hope you also enjoy some of our other videos
@@JamesandKarla Thank you James and Karla love all your vlogs - take care!!
Heard good things about Michaelis. We love that chocolate babka from Breads. Spinach and cheese bureka looks tasty, especially covered in sesame seeds
Food and Footprints it is a gem! They sell that famous chocolate babka made with dark chocolate and Nutella! It’s $12 for the loaf. The spinach Bureka we had was delicious and we look forward to going back and trying the pizza 🍕 Burke’s too!
Hi Hudson James and Karla thanks for showing us the Jewish place to eat i never had Jewish food but it looks interesting
3:37 Hudson is such a good boy!
Thank you so much and Hudson sends big paws up and kisses to you from NYC!
This was a fantastic tour. Thank you. I grew up in the Bronx and miss the kosher bakeries and delis.
Bella’s Mom thank you so much for watching and for the kind words of support! We are glad our Jewish food tour of the Lower East Side brought back such great memories of the bakeries and delis in the Bronx. Liebman’s Deli in Riverdale is still going strong 💪 and retains its old school feel.
I think Jewish food is very tasty, I like their chicken stew and soup. When I was young a Jewish family took me to a traditional Jewish restaurant. I ordered a Chicken soup, which consist of a whole chicken leg. Anyway, thanks for showing the Lower east side eateries.
Oh yes so many NYC Jewish foods traditionally come from immigrants who settled in the Lower East Side from Eastern Europe and are indeed very tasty. To us there is nothing better than a hot Chicken soup especially on a cold winter day or when you are feeling under the weather. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!
Yonah Shimmel, the home of the last handmade knish. Used to be at Christie and Delancey. And no governor was ever elected without having his picture taken at Shimmel's with a knish in his mush. Sit; have nice glass tea.
And it is so nice to hear people speak without an accent. ;o)
Thank you so much Zoltan for watching and commenting to us. We love Yonah Schimmel Knishery and highlighted it last year on a tour of vintage shops in the East Village and stopped in to get Knishes. You are right in that many politicians get Knishes and their photo taken there as well as many celebrities. Here’s the link to our video from last year: ua-cam.com/video/8sDozpxOiUg/v-deo.html
Respect for your works guys!
Thank you so much Eric for the love! We really appreciate you watching and commenting to us as it so wonderful to hear great feedback.
@@JamesandKarla As a native East Villager, born and raised on Ave C, I love that you are documenting our hood. Wish you had been around in the 70s!
I love everything in that shop!
Thank you so much for the love! It is definitely a true Lower East Side gem. Thank you so much for watching and commenting to us. We hope you also enjoy watching some of our other UA-cam videos highlighting unique places in NYC!
Moishe’s is great. Used to go to the one in the East Village until it shut down over a year ago. Love the black and white. Great video.
This video made me hungry.
Jumi surprised me for my birthday thos year by taking me to Sammy’s Roumanian. First time going here and it was a ton of fun! A real “only in New York” type of place. We enjoyed Danny Love
Food and Footprints that is so awesome! It definitely is a New York only kind of place and difficult to describe in just words. That is why we wanted to show it in a video. Did you guys have the chopped liver prepared Sammy’s style?
James and Karla Nope - we got the pan-fried liver and onions along with sweetbreads. So good!
Food and Footprints that definitely sounds delicious! It is certainly a birthday celebration 🎉 you will remember!
Closed down last week for good. Very sad.
Years ago, there was a luncheonette called Moishe's that my mother and I would frequent. This was back in the mid 50's to early 60's. She actually was a childhood friend of the owners' daughter. I'm sure they are all gone now, but, this sure brings back memories. It was a great place to eat and I loved their tuna fish sandwiches. Thank you for sharing.
We are glad that our video brought back such wonderful memories. Have you ever been to B&H Dairy restaurant as they too make great tuna sandwiches and are the oldest Jewish dairy restaurant in the East Village. We just highlighted them in a recent video which we hope you also enjoy watching :

You made me hungry lol
kurita82 thank you so much for watching! There were so many delicious things to eat in this video! 😊
From one Pitbull mama to another, Hutson is beautiful! Also I just love your videos!! You really know a lot about NYC🗽
Mike & Karen Jackson thank you so much for the love 💕! It means so much to hear from viewers and especially a fellow pitbull owner as you know how sensitive, needy and goofy the breed is. We hope you also enjoy some of our other videos. Hudson 🐾🐾appears in most of our videos and often gets a treat from us or the shop owners.
I think Hudson wants some cookies, too! They look yummy! Awesome video!Is like I`m there with you! This is one of my favorite!
Oh yes Hudson is always wanting treats! All of the cookies and pastries & breads from Moishe's are amazing! Thank you so much for watching and commenting to us. This video was a favorite of ours to film and share too!
Sammy’s is sadly now closed for good. Surprised you didn’t go to B&H dairy...one of the last Jewish restaurants left.
Great job...Thank you
Thank you so much for watching and commenting to us. We are glad you liked watching and hope you enjoy some of our other NYC videos highlighting great food shops and other small unique businesses. We also hope you can visit some of these wonderful places in the City once they reopen when it is safe to do so
Only 1 spot for our video, but still great coverage!!
You can see some other great Jewish food spots that we plan to visit with you on this video: ua-cam.com/video/FvSbGMJ6ju4/v-deo.html
The Jewish side of the Lower east side was much nicer than the Italian side. My family only shop for Jewish tailoring and food, back in the 70’s and 80’s. It’s still nice there even today, enough said.😃
Luckily there are still remnants of the old Jewish sections of the Lower East Side left in NYC as they have been slowly disappearing with gentrification and higher rents. We are glad you enjoyed watching our video and hope you also enjoy watching some of our other UA-cam videos highlighting how the City looks these days.
Hudson is so cute;)
Thank you so much for the love! Hudson sends big kisses to you from NYC! We hope you also enjoy watching some of our other UA-cam videos and usually Hudson comes along with us!
@@JamesandKarla Send my big hugs to Hudson . I subscribed to your video channel and will watch all of your travel and food tours. I am a volunteer at a dog shelter in Singapore. Take care and stay safe :)
I dream about such places. Those burekas are so addictive. Jewish food is great as there is no pork in it. I have guilt free noshes then. The salt beef bagels were to die for in that clip. Loved the atmosphere in the Romanian restaurant too, it looked homely and unchanged.
Anna kelman thank you so much for watching and commenting. We are glad you loved all the Jewish food places we visited in this video. We hope you get a chance to try some of the food including the burekas and bagels once NYC is safe again to visit. We will keep everyone posted on when things open back up again but for now Sammy’s Romanian Restaurant is closed.
This is so fabulous! Are you still making videos?!!
Thank you so much and yes we post new videos at least twice a week including livestreams!
@@JamesandKarla So fabulous! Thank you!!
Love the video. One quick point is that not all Jewish foods or Jewish Style foods are Kosher. That's a major difference because Sammy's Romanian and Katz's Deli are both Jewish style foods, whereas, the 2nd Ave Deli ( now on East 33rd St) and Mendy's Deli , for example are both Kosher. Ditto with Moishe's Kosher Bakery. The same applies with Kosher Pizza shops vs traditional. Anyway, all the stories involved among the stores you've visited here are interesting. Keep up your labor of love. # 1 Fan.
Thank you so much for the love ❤️! Yes we knew that both Sammy’s and Katz’s are not kosher. Katz’s even serves a Reuben sandwich which would never ever be considered kosher by definition of its ingredients. We have never been to Mindy’s and now will look into it so thank you for the great tip. We miss the 2nd Ave deli’s original location on .2nd Ave at the corner of 10th street (now a Chase bank branch). Thank you again for watching and commenting as always!
@@JamesandKarla Yes...thanks.. I correctly changed Mindy's to Mendy's Deli on East 34th St... my error...lol
Sammy's is closed permanently
Yes it is very sad. We noted the closure in the video description.
Is there little Germany in New York City.
There was once a “Kleindeutschland” or Little Germany in the Lower East Side /East Village in the late 1800s but in the early 1900s many Germans started moving out of the neighborhood’s crowded tenement buildings and went further north into the Upper East Side near 86th Street. The largest exodus of Germans from the East Village happened in 1904 after the General Slocum Disaster when thousands of young children and families were killed on a steamboat disaster in the East River.
@@JamesandKarla It's so sad.May God give them heaven.
I want to fix your hair
