Yonah Schimmel's Knish Bakery is a bakery and restaurant, located at 137 East Houston Street (between First Avenue and Second Avenue), in the Lower East Side, Manhattan, that has been selling knishes on the Lower East Side since 1890 from its original location on Houston Street.As the Lower East Side has changed over the decades and many of its Jewish residents have departed, Yonah Schimmel's is one of the few distinctly Jewish businesses and restaurants that remain as a fixture of this largely departed culture and cuisine.As cited in The Underground Gourmet, a review of Yonah Schimmel's in a collection of restaurant reviews by Milton Glaser and Jerome Snyder, "No New York politician in the last 50 years has been elected to office without having at least one photograph showing him on the Lower East Side with a knish in his face."HistoryAbout 1890, Yonah Schimmel, a Romanian immigrant, used a pushcart to start his knish bakery. As business grew, a small store on Houston Street was rented by Yonah and his cousin Joseph Berger. When Yonah left the business a few years later, Berger took over the business, retaining the original name. In 1910, the Bergers moved the business to the south side of Houston Street, at its current location. Yonah Schimmel's has been family owned since its inception and is currently operated by Yonah's great nephew, Alex Wolfman.In 1995, the shop's then-owner, Sheldon Keitz, was implicated in a loan-sharking scheme. The shop was amongst the locations where loans were repaid.

Neapolitan pizza embodies the essence of what authentic Italian pizza should be; soft, well cooked, fragrant and enclosed in a high, soft edge of crust. As a member of the Verace Pizza Napoletana Association, Via Tribunali respects the culinary discipline associated with making authentic Neapolitan pizza. Specific preparation, ingredients and method of cooking are essential to recreating the tradition of pizza as it began in Naples. Hand-kneaded dough, ingredients imported from Naples, and a wood-burning Vesuvius brick oven lend to the unique characteristics of Via Tribunali’s pizza. Neapolitan pizza is steeped in traditions dating back to 1730 when the first Marinara pizza (tomato, olive oil and oregano) was made. The Margherita pizza (tomato, olive oil, mozzarella and basil) was introduced in honor of Queen Margherita di Savoia’s visit to Naples in the early 1800’s. From this point on, trattorie, or what would later be called pizzerie, became popular among “i Napoletani” (the people). By the late 1800’s, Neapolitan pizza spread throughout the world as a result of immigrants and trade influences.
With a dedicated following at his two Tokyo locations, Orkin returned to New York City to open his first restaurant on the Lower East Side, with the intent of bringing the same authentic and highly imaginative noodle-craft to his hometown. Ivan Ramen proudly uses only the freshest ingredients, cooked slow and steady, to ensure each slurp is full of flavor. Even the noodles are hand-made in the shop itself, because, "After all, we are a noodle shop and I never did like the idea of putting someone else's noodles in my soup." Enthusiastic slurping is not only tolerated, but encouraged for the most genuine experience possible. Who says ramen has to be junk? This is slow food, fast!
