I even like them. The vanilla side is creamy and yummy instead of the flakey, chalky waxlike stuff most places use. The cookie is more like a soft cake with a subtle hint of lemon.Annettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07210044619385353650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516477229541039112.post-4463491481669558442010-02-12T22:00:12.657-08:002010-02-12T22:00:12.657-08:00Betsy:

I have had several from UWS local bakeries- but to be honest they were pretty bad (which is way I have not named said bakeries) <br /><br />In the interest of a good review I am not adverse to having to travel to get something that could be great so I am going to have to put Leske's on my list for next visit. and anything with the name "Zabar's" before it has got to be good!<br /><br />Dammit why am I not in New York right now?!

I have to comment on your B&...Hi -- nice blog! I have to comment on your B&W choices because they've all been pre-packaged cookies that are pale reflections of the true New York Black and White! You've got to go to a real bakery to get a sense of the variety -- I grew up on the ones from Leske's in Brooklyn, they're about 4-5" wide, are covered with soft icing, are baked daily, and never, ever, EVER plastic wrapped. I've had amazing hardshell ones at Dean and Deluca or Eli Zabar's E.A.T. on the UES (one of those -- I can't remember which), which would be easier to get to if you're just visiting the city for a few days (Bay Ridge is a bit of a hike). <br /><br />I should add, though, there's a big Brooklyn - Utica, NY rivalry, for the Black and White cookie title. The place is known for their marvelous "half moons" (as they call them up there.) The Uticans say they're the best, but I tend to think they've just taken the Brooklyn recipe upstate! I recently had some excellent ones at a wedding up there -- like the ones from Brooklyn, the Utica cookies were covered with buttercream icing, but were smaller than the Leske's ones. Really delicious cookies!<br /><br />So ood luck in your quests! You'll find the perfect one out there, I know it...betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00852215256731738289noreply@blogger.com
