5 Hipster-and Rosh Hashanah-Friendly Brooklyn Restaurants
- Andrew Strenio
Shelsky’s Smoked Fish
“No more schlepping,” is the motto at Shelsky’s — a promise that Brooklynites will no longer have to travel to the Lower East Side in search of Jewish appetizing stores of yore. But as much as the Cobble Hill shop pays homage to the classics — like belly lox, whitefish salad, borscht and kippered herring —owner and professional chef Peter Shelsky puts his training to work with Manischewitz braised short ribs, homemade honey cake, and celeriac and sweet potato kugel.
