Watch our visit to B&H Dairy Kosher Restaurant!
The best place for a delicious and affordable vegetarian meal in New York City is B&H Kosher Dairy Restaurant on 2nd Avenue near St Mark’s Place which was founded in 1938. Abie Bergson and Jack Heller founded this tiny luncheonette when Second Avenue from 14th Street to Houston Street was considered “The Jewish Rialto” due to the large numbers of Yiddish theaters along the Avenue. The current owners of B&H are husband-and-wife team Aleksandra (Ola) and Fawzy Abdelwahed. Fawzy purchased the restaurant in 2003, and Ola joined him two years later. Both of them are immigrants (Ola a Catholic from Poland and Fawzy a Muslim from Egypt), who not only embrace the neighborhood’s diversity but still offer the same classic Jewish kosher comfort food (no meat served) including latkes, knishes, borscht, blintzes, pierogi, tuna sandwiches and homemade challah bread.
We recently visited @bandhdairy and had a bowl of delicious vegetarian borscht (only $5.50 for the huge bowl of soup which comes with buttered slices of freshly baked challah bread 
) and a farmer cheese blintz. We also highly recommend their latke, egg and cheese sandwich served on freshly baked challah bread for only $7 (seen at the end of the video). Please go and support this lovely family-owned spot as they struggled to survive during the pandemic and do not own the building they are located in.
