It’s Pronounced ‘Nish,’ Honey.

By Words To Eat By Nov 10, 2005

S and I were on a King of the Hill kick a while back, and one of my favorite episodes was the one in which an authentic Jewish deli opens up in their not-terribly-cosmopolitan Texas town. Bobby, Hank and Peggy’s prepubescent son, becomes overly fond of chopped chicken liver (“I love it! It’s meat I can eat with a spoon!”) and as a result, develops gout. There are tons of funny lines in the show, but the one that really tickled this Jewish New Yorker’s funny bone was when the whole Hill mishpachah went to the deli together. Puzzling over the menu, the none-too-bright Luanne asks, “What’s a kay-nish?” Peggy, who’s far smarter than Luanne but nowhere near as smart as she thinks she is, answers authoritatively: “It's pronounced ‘Nish,’ honey. The ‘k’ is silent. And I have no idea.” FULL REVIEW

A solitary fooding day

By The Girl Who Ate Everything Mar 23, 2005

I reheated it in the oven for about 15 minutes at 350 degrees. Mm mm. They use a microwave to heat them up if you want but microwaves suck the crap (I haven't voluntarily used on in years, figuring everything can be reheated by steaming, baking, frying...and other stuff). Re-baking made it so good. In retrospect, it didn't have lots of flavor but as I'm not well versed in the world of knishes I have no idea how flavorful it's supposed to be. I like it anyhoo.

Yonah Schimmel's (Guest Review)

By Walker New York Eats Apr 12, 2004

The last time I was on the Fresh Direct web site, they no longer had YS knishes available, but one of my coworkers, Julie, recently went to the bakery and says that experience far improves upon a warmed-over knish. Here's what she says: FULL REVIEW

Yonah Schimmel Knishery

By Salli Vates May 15, 2003

Do you have a palate but no wallet? The humane folks at Yonah Schimmel Knishery will stuff you to the gills for less than the price of a round-trip Metrocard. For $2-3, you can inhale a giant, flaky knish overflowing with your choice of filling: traditional potato, oniony kasha, sweet potato, broccoli, jalapeno cheddar, or even pizza! And for those of your relatives who have the misfortune of not residing in NYC (or who refuse to leave the Upper East Side), Schimmel's will ship the luscious knishes anywhere in the continental US.
