The History of Zabar's and the Family Who Owns It

All Of It with Alison Stewart | May 13, 2022

Zabar's has been a New York staple since it opened on 80th and Broadway in 1934. A new book, written by the late Lori Zabar, tells the history of how this family business was opened by Jewish immigrants fleeing Russian pograms, and has been able to maintain its quality and relevancy over nearly a century. Zabar's family members Marguerite Mariscal, daughter of Lori Zabar, and Dr.Sandy Zabar, daughter of Stanley Zabar, join us to discuss the book, Zabar's: A Family Story, with Recipes. Plus, we take calls from listeners about their favorite Zabar's memories, and products.
