The Scene
On the far eastern edge of Grand Street lies Kossar's Bialystoker Kuchen Bakery--or Kossar's as it's commonly known--a legendary operation that dates back to 1927. Kossar's is strictly a to-go operation, but don't be surprised if you wind up lingering to watch the flour-covered bakers go about the endless work of shuttling giant wooden trays of dough in and out of the oven.


The Food
The bialys at Kossar's are nothing short of a baking marvel. The warm bialy experience is one of those quintessential culinary experiences that every New Yorker should enjoy at least once. The first taste sensations are textural--of lightness, softness and an airy center--and eventually give way to a stronger current of dark and charry taste. Impossibly sweet bits of onion sprinkled on top linger to the finish.

My father was a baker. He worked at some of the best bakery's in NY. There Bagels and Bialy's remide me of what he baked.

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.

Who are all these people writing about how wonderful these "Kossar" bialys are? Last night I bought a dozen, believing them to be, as they always were, the best in the city - Arguably the best in the country ...... well, NOT ANY MORE! They are tiny, doughy, tasteless and not worth the calories. The consensus among those who ate one was- NO WAY THESE WERE KOSSARS!. Sure enough, I just read that Kossar was no longer the owner. Doh! What a surprise. Save your money! Buy some English muffins.
