Gawker is OWNED! They should really stick to rating that which they themselves understand — you know, overpriced fusion restaurants and bistros. Still, it’s so sweet that they try to pretend to understand the culinary preferences of the Jewish masses.

I get my knish out of the kosher freezer section. :(
The gastronomic delight in which Seattle is woefully lacking.

Hey Gawker. We know that you have been queing up at Balthazar for your doughy delights . Yout can’t get enough of those orange glazed doughnuts. Own up Gawker. Who among you has actually ever been to Yonah Schimmel? , You can decry the loss, but if you have not ever experienced the culinary prefection of a real knish, your cries are half-baked.
