Brings back fond memories, with a tear in my eye, but chewing the comforting bialy makes it all better. It always has. With any luck, always will.
- Pros: Crispy Outside, Chewy Inside
- Cons: None

Family tradition kept alive
by kossarneice at Citysearch
Hello. I am one of Morris Kossar's neices. I was just a baby when my father, Morri's brother-in-law, and my mother used to go to the bakery to assist. I remember growing up with onion boards hot out of the oven, long bags of bialys and tubs of butter to eat them with. I am close to the Kossars to this day as they are my family and I hope the owners now keep my uncle's tradition of hard work and the best of the best going for all to remember.
