Before
Lee Lee's Baked GoodsAlvin Lee Smalls found a rugelach recipe while working the bakery at New York-Presbyterian in 1964 and spent six months getting his own version right. He has been selling it in Harlem ever since and he is still the one baking. The sweet potato pie is worth the walk on its own.

After
Dorrian's Red HandJames Dorrian opened this on Second Avenue in 1960 and his grandson runs it now. Red checked tablecloths, burgers, a long bar, and the same family name over the door for sixty-six years. It has had more written about it than most bars on this avenue and the inside has not changed much for any of it. Open until just before four in the morning every day.
