Welcome to NY Culinary Finds

A family friend from Israel, with a passion for food, came to visit me in New York. He wanted a culinary tour of New York City. In part he wanted to eat at great restaurants but he was also looking for unique and interesting shops and markets. His desire to see this side of New York inspired me to share some of my favorite culinary spots and uncover new ones. NY Culinary Finds is an outgrowth of this original food adventure.

What you’ll find here are places around the five boroughs that offer interesting products and experiences that satisfy your senses.  Though the initial places are Manhattan-based, stay tuned for great places to visit in other parts of New York City. And, I’d love to hear about any places; stores or markets you’ve been to that excite your culinary side.
