"Five generations of Zimmerns have eaten food from Russ & Daughters. I cried holding these pages the first time I read them. These stories are all of ours, the hopes and the dreams, the sacrifices and losses, and the legend. I want you to cook from this incredible book and become part of the story. What a mitzvah!"
—Andrew Zimmern

"I have known the Russ family for generations. When I was a child, my dad took me at least once a month for a bit of elegantly sliced smoked salmon, a block of rich cream cheese, a dozen freshly baked bagels, and if he was feeling a flush, a big piece of delicious halvah. I have shopped and kibbitzed with the family ever since. This cookbook shares their history and provides us with delicious recipes that we all can make in our own homes. Mazel tov!"
—Martha Stewart

"One of my earliest memories is sitting in the window of our apartment, staring across the street at the Russ & Daughters’ neon, and wondering if my mom would remember to bring home halvah. This cookbook is a treasure trove of recipes, history, and culture that will be halvah for the heart and soul of any New Yorker."
—Liev Schreiber

"No other cookbook I've seen has so gracefully translated the heart and soul of a storied brick-and-mortar establishment onto its pages. Then again, there's no other place quite like Russ & Daughters. Simultaneously timeless and topical, this book reminds us that everyone comes from somewhere, everyone has a dream, and everyone's gotta eat."
—Adeena Sussman, New York Times bestselling author of Shabbat and Sababa

"New York is a city that never stops changing—but sometimes, the boldest act of innovation is having the courage to stay the same. For over a century, Russ & Daughters has been an anchor in a city of constant motion, a celebration of tradition, a beacon of hospitality. [This] isn’t just a cookbook—it’s a celebration of what happens when you do something so well, for so long, that it becomes about more than just the food. It becomes a legacy."
—Will Guidara, New York Times bestselling author of Unreasonable Hospitality
