☰Zabar's

Zabar's has occupied its Broadway location between 80th and 81st Streets since 1934. The store sells smoked fish, cheese, coffee, bread and deli items at the street-level counter; the mezzanine floor is one of the best sources of kitchen equipment and cookware in the city. The smoked sable, Nova Scotia salmon and whitefish salad are the standards. The Saturday morning queue is a neighbourhood institution.
