NYC Chinatown Kosher Restaurants?
Submitted by: tourist on Feb 7th 2005
As an out of towner, I am having trouble identifying a kosher restaurant in the area of Chinatown. Can anyone help out? Thanks!
Reply #1 submitted by: Elan Kornblum, Publisher on Feb 7th 2005
The problem is that there aren't any kosher chinese restaurants in Chinatown. The closest kosher restaurant to have Chinese in Manhattan is Mr. Broadway on Broadway & 38th. If you can't go that far, try Essex on Coney Downtown (it's a delicatessen but it's not too far from Chinatown)- and they have very good food. Good luck.
Reply #2 submitted by: tourist on Feb 8th 2005
Thanks. Is there anything Kosher that is not Chinese food in Chinatown?
Reply #3 submitted by: Elan Kornblum, Publisher on Feb 9th 2005
Unfortunately there isn't anything really kosher in the heart of Chinatown. However, Noah's Ark at 399 Grand Street (probably a few blocks outside Chinatown) near Delancey and Essex is the closest. Essex on Coney Downtown (on Trinity Place- bet. Morris St. & Exchange Pl.) and the Village Crown (on 3rd Ave. & 12th St.) are the next closest. Noah's Ark is not on our website, but Essex on Coney Downtown and Village Crown are.

Buddah Bodai on Mott Street (near Worth St.) is a vegitarian restaurant that claims to be kosher. You'll have to check with your Rabbi about the certification.
Le Marais
Submitted by: Moishe Schwartz on Feb 1st 2005
I bought $650 worth of gift certificares for a friend's party at Le Marais and I specifically stipulated that I wanted to take care of their entire bill including the tip. When it came time to pay, the bill came out to about $500 plus about $100 tip. They then refused to accept the gift certificates that I had purchased for that specific purpose for the tip. Long story short if anyone wants $200 in gift certificates to Le Marais I'd sell them for $150 This also goes for any other kosher restaurant just email me at joedra2002@yahoo.com

Moishe,
Normally the restaurants prefer you pay in cash when it comes to the tip, because that goes towards the waiters.
Reply #2 submitted by: leah on Aug 10th 2008
i know you posted this 3 years ago but do you by any chance have any more le Marais certificates?

Best sushi made fresh daily, it's cool to watch the guy making it, and they have all types of fish, too! There's also a kosher meat dept. where you can get fresh cut meat and chicken; tons of Kosher stuff from Jewish and non-Jewish brands.
Word of warning: read labels! make sure what you're holding is kosher! Rabvbi Dovid Beck does the hashgacha (watching).

Skewer's Steak House on Union TPKE. is by far the best steak house in New York. I have tried every steak place in New York, and have never had a finer dining experience. My wife and I have been there every sunday for the past month, and they never sieze to amaze. This place takes the crown off of Hapisgahs' head. What a great Queens treasure, even if you wait slighly longer for your food. They make everything (including desserts) in house. What steak house does that anymore? I love that place. Try it, you will never eat elsewhere! P.S. the Sea Bass is phenomenal.

The worst kosher steakhouse I've ever been to. My husband and I shared a ONE POUND steak calling it a steak for 2 for $60.00. The bill for a family of 4 was $200.00 & when we got home we were still HUNGREY. As a mother who keeps kosher NEVER AGAIN.

Hapisgah Steak House
Submitted by: Estelle on Jan 9th 2005
The most delicious steak, shish kebab everything in the world. I had chicken, my husband had the sizzling steak with the onions. We licked our fingers and the plates clean. Huge portion, we had to finish it was too delicious. I wish I lived closer, I would eat there every day. Service great, atmosphere great as well.

Out of all the restraunts in New York Hapisgah is by far our favorite. The decor is beautiful and romantic with wonderful small tables for two. The food is absolutely amazing....no matter what you pick. The house steak on top of mushrooms and onions on a special hot plate is enough foof for two. They have a complete bar to start off your meal with coctails. My wife loves the SOB drink. We could never give a higher recommendation to any eatery as we do for Hapisgah. And the price..you cannot believe how reasonable. Do yourself and loved one a favor and take our advise.

Is there any stores or Delis in Winter Haven, Florida where i could buy Jewish Corn Beef or Jewish Salami?
Reply #1 submitted by: Elan Kornblum, Publisher on Jan 3rd 2005
Unfortunately, there aren't any delicatessens near there. However, there are restaurants that will ship food anywhere in the United States, namely, Essex on Coney and King David in New York (their info can be found on this site). The best best is to find a restaurant that you like and ask them if they ship nationwide. Nowadays, some restaurants have become experts at sending fresh food in air-tight frozen, ready to heat packages. You can even contact KosherOnWheels.com for more choices.

Todd (who took down our 10th-anniv-dinner reservations) wasn't there the night that we dined (our first visit there -- we certainly hope to return), but he ensured that the server treated us right (a complimentary appetizer for us both and a complimentary slice of that heavenly choc. cake, adorned with a candle, for my wife). The server himself wasn't top-notch (he didn't mention the "special" entree that wasn't on that week's menu, and he was too enthralled with the kitchen goings-on and his conversation with the other server to notice that we were done with the entrees and looking forward to his continued service -- as part of visiting the WC, I clued him in on walking to our table), but the food was excellent!
Todd strives for a combination of tastes, and the dishes we tried were mostly successful in that regard. The foie gras appetizer was nothing to write home about, but the comp. appetizer of [duck?] liver and berries was delicious, as were our entrees, the duck with its polenta & potatoes and the lamb with its rice and beans. The choc. cake with pareve cream was, as I mentioned, out of this world! At this time, expect to pay on the order of $50/person (before any coupons you may wish to redeem ;-)), but you should receive a wonderful meal in return.
The menu we perused already is quite different from what's currently posted on this site, so even frequent visitors should never feel compelled to order the same item they previously savored. The restaurant itself is literally a hole in the wall, on the order of 10'x50', which hopefully will keep rental costs down and help Todd "make it" financially. The decor is understated, but as I didn't see any sound-absorbing elements (besides the entrance's hanging rugs), the place may be rather noisy if it's filled to capacity (which it definitely was not when we were there). Any questions, please reply to this message. Thanks!
