Snow Day! Is It Lunch Time Yet?

Here’s a look at our less-than-advertised spring blizzard via @joana_m_l’s Instagram.  @bialystoker_les was out in Chinatown earlier:

And Amy Robinson took in the pre-dawn scene in Seward Park:

So who’s open and who’s closed. Let’s take a look at your “snow day” restaurant options:

“BUSINESS GOING ON AS USUAL” at Russ & Daughters (the shop 179 East Houston) and Russ & Daughters Cafe (127 Orchard). Come in from the cold for bagels and lox, matzo ball soup, freshly-baked babka, toasted bialys, latkes, knishes, blintzes: all of your appetizing favorites made by Russ & Daughters! Please note: only our uptown location is closed today: Russ & Daughters at the Jewish Museum. #AppetizingSince1914 #RussAndDaughters
