Eden Wok Manhattan not planing on closing

Despite reports from another website that Eden Wok in New York City was closing, we have spoken with ownership who have confirmed that the story of their decision to close was a false report. This is an unfortunate situation where misreporting has actually hurt their business with companies hesitant to book their holiday parties with them and negatively hurting their reputation. We urge that site (despite multiple requests from the owner) to send out a retraction to their readers.
 

We broke this story on our Facebook page a month ago, but over a dozen Dunkin' Donuts in New York City now have select kosher donuts and bagels available under the kosher supervision of Rabbi Aaron Mehlman. The stores themselves are NOT kosher; however, their bakery items are produced at a strictly kosher commissary. A current and laminated certificate (click here) must be displayed before purchasing products. Click here for a listing of the 18 new kosher Dunkin' Donuts throughout downtown, midtown and the East side of Manhattan.

 

Lox Cafe in The Jewish Museum on the UES closes

While their website has them closed for renovations until early 2015, 
we have learned that Lox Cafe on the Upper East Side will no longer be opening.  After U Cafe closed earlier in the year, this leaves the area with very few dairy options.
 

 

We have known this for some time, but we can finally and officially announce that Amsterdam Burger Co., the popular gourmet burger restaurant owned by Mike Gershkovich and Marty Katz on the Upper West Side, has acquired the Mother Kelly space at 490 Chestnut Street in Cedarhurst (across from LIRR) and will be open by the beginning of 2015.  Stay tuned.

 

 

 

Brooklyn on Rye opens on Kings Highway    
Don't count out the delicatessen just yet. We stopped in to Brooklyn On Rye which recently opened at 543 Kings Highway (off East 4th) as owner Yaron Harazi is bucking the trend of sushi and fusion style restaurants. Yaron has been in the meat and deli business for almost two decades and is excited to be bringing his "Brooklyn on Rye" to the neighborhood. Besides all your deli favorites, they also offer a salad bar, schawarma, schnitzel, burgers and more. Click here for photos.
 

 

Breadsmith coming to Avenue M in November

In what can only be called a bizarro situation, a food establishment is actually REPLACING a bank on Avenue M. 
Breadsmith will be opening at 1817 Avenue M in early November, coincidentally next door to Kaff's Bakery. "Great Kosher Restaurants" spoke to the owner Chaim Lieff and he is very excited about his place and believes this will revolutionize the bread industry, especially kosher, in New York. Breadsmith, founded in 1993, has over 30 independently owned retail bakeries, with this being the first location in New York. Chaim grew in Minnesota, where there is a kosher Breadsmith (there are others kosher ones, including Chicago) but when he moved to New York 5 years ago he felt there was nothing like this here. 
Chaim is quick to point out that this is not a bakery and it will not have birthday cakes. 
Breadsmith specializes in handcrafted artisan breads made fresh from scratch using the highest quality ingredients with no additives or preservatives. They say their dough is never frozen and their breads are baked in six-ton, stone-hearth ovens imported from Europe (the Brooklyn location is getting their oven from Italy). They also make specialty breads and a wide range of challah, cookies, muffins and sweets. Breadsmith has received accolades for their European-style breads including top honors from Bon Appétit magazine, Modern Baking, International Culinary Salon, National Restaurant Association and "Best of" awards throughout the country. On their website, they state they are not just another chain store but a neighborhood store. The website goes on to say that they are "focused on being community-based by taking part in local events and causes on a regular basis. We not only sell an affordable luxury, but we also donate our time and products to those who are in need of it. Each location donates day-old bread to shelters and soup kitchens, as well as generous gift certificates and bread orders to assist local fundraisers." 

 

 

The last time we checked in with Sruli Eidelman of Izzy's BBQ Addiction, he was looking for a name for his not-yet-opened restaurant. Well, he's got that and a new logo.  Sruli tell us he will be up and running for any catering right before Succos and that the official grand opening will probably be right after the holidays. His location will be at 397 Troy Avenue in Crown Heights with seating for about 25-30 people.

Sushi Tokyo opening in Flushing 
We were recently informed that Sushi Tokyo, with locations already on Kings Highway and Coney Island Avenue in Brooklyn as well another location in Lawrence, will soon be opening up in Queens on Main Street, next to Carlos and Gabby's. The restaurant will be casual in nature and will feature all of their popular and renowned sushi rolls and dishes. Expect the opening to be in a few months. Sushi lovers will say there can never be enough sushi restaurants and we couldn't agree more.

Turquoise  

goes from non-kosher to Kosher

We love these stories. The long-standing Mediterranean Great Neck fish restaurant, is now kosher and under the Vaad of Queens. Turquoise Kosher Restaurant first opened across the street from the Great Neck LIRR station in 1999. It was purchased in 2010 by Erica Bushkin, who moved the restaurant in 2012 to its current location at 76 Middle Neck Road. In making Turquoise kosher, Bushkin was responding to Great Neck's growing kosher clientele. "The town is becoming more religious," she told Newsday. "You have to change with the times." What hadn't changed, she added, was the kitchen crew. Please note: This establishment is not to be confused with the Turquoise on Union Turnpike in Fresh Meadows.

A letter was emailed last week to the community from the owners of Kosher Experience that after 11 years of serving the Bergen County area, they are closing the retail section of the restaurant (they closed Wednesday night August 27). They are moving to Clifton where they will have both Dairy & Meat Kitchens, so that they can continue to service all of their school programs, after school programs, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs and any other simcha. You can reach them at 201.692.7722. Their new location offers a party room that can seat up to 140 people and is located at 306 Main Ave, Clifton NJ.  They thank all of their customers and friends for the "many years of loyalty and business."

Fresko is taking over the location of Ike's Diner at 9476 Harding Avenue in Surfside. Ike's, whichwas a retro dairy diner, has been opened for just a year but never really took off in the area, closed this week. After Labor Day, for the months of September and October, the restaurant will be under renovation with a new fresh look that Fresko is known for. They will be open for the season come November time. The new Fresko will feature a similar menu to the one they have in Aventura and will also be waiter service.  This just strengthens Surfside as the dominant area (where the kosher places just stretch over 2 blocks) for upscale kosher dining as 3 new restaurants are opening soon (Baruch Sandhaus' two new restaurants as well as "26" - which took over Lotus). Together with Harbour Grill, Kosh and Cine Citta, you are left with abundance of exceptional restaurants. But wait there is more...Fresko will also be opening a Fresko Express in the Chase Building in the Aventura Mall, also in November, which will feature a lighter version of their menu with sandwiches and sushi.

Cooked in 90 Seconds PizzaLaurent Masliah is back in LA! The former owner of Cow Jumped over the Moon and La Seine has been busy in New York this past year, opening and running Pizza da Solo, the Neapolitan style pizzeria in the Sony Building owned by Joey Allaham. There Laurent worked with well known chef Giulio Adriani in bringing this very unique pizza to the kosher market. Well, fast forward a year, and Laurent and Giulio have partnered up to open "Cooked in 90 Seconds Pizza" in Los Angeles, which basically tells you how long you will have to wait for your pizza. The pizzeria will offer a very similar menu to Pizza Da Solo, consisting mainly of 10" inch thin crust pizza with fresh homemade mozzarella, cooked in a wood-burning oven at a very high temperature (1000°F).They will be located at 8834 Pico Blvd., next door to MexiKosher. They hope to open soon after the holidays in October.
