DISH OF THE WEEK in New York: Totkes at EDITH’S SANDWICH COUNTER

You’d think these small bite-sized potato latkes would be a special for Hanukkah when fried potato pancakes are traditional eaten. But Edith’s Sandwich Counter specializes in updated versions of traditional Jewish foods all year long. So these totkes are something you can (and should) order any day of the year.

Edith’s are experts at frying latkes to be creamy, salty, crispy, and addictive without overdoing the grease. They are so good, they put the on their breakfast sandwiches to add an extra layer of crunch. But you can also get them as a side to dip in one of their homemade sauces (the Zatar Ranch is a must-try) or topped with their cheesy sauce. You can also try these yourself on one of our Complete Village Food Tours. Price: $9
