Pastrami on Rye with House-made Pickles and Deli Mustard – $5.25
With well-seasoned pastrami and a lovely mustard, this was one of the best sandwiches at the Festival. It came with a great pickle as well. This is highly recommended.
Smoked Salmon Potato Latkes – $5.50
The Salmon Latkes are a great deal for the price, considering how much salmon is provided. This latke also has plenty of capers, which surprised us due to it being a higher-price ingredient. The dill sour cream on top adds a nice flavor with the potato and salmon mixed in. Creamy, salty, and with a slight herby kick from the dill, this is a great latke and a great option from the festival overall.
Our only complaint about the latkes is that we wish they were a little crispier, but it’s still really good.
Potato Latkes – $4.00
A salmon-less version for vegetarians, these latkes are are delicious, even though they seem to be made out of mashed potatoes, rather than the traditional shredded potatoes.
This is the same dill sour cream that was used in the salmon latke. If you’re not a fan of dill flavoring, we recommend you pass on these.
Sufganiyot: Mini Jelly-filled Donuts – $3.50
We loved these donuts! They are small but fresh and a little bit dense. The jelly is sweet with a touch of tartness but not overly sweet, which is nice.
The glaze on the donuts is also pretty sweet, but it helps balance out the tart jelly filling.
Black and White Cookie – $2.50
Another cookie on the cookie stroll; this was the worst of the bunch. If you’re not seeking out the final cookie stroll prize, don’t get this.
Shmaltz Brewing Company Hanukkah Beer, Clifton Park, NY (8.0% ABV) – $5.00 (6 oz) / $9.00 (12 oz)
According to Schmaltz Brewing Company, their Hanukkah beer, known as Golden Jelly Doughnut Pastry Ale, is “brewed with raspberry and cherry,” and fittingly for Hanukkah, is also “brewed with 8 malts and 8 hops.”
Blue Cosmo Cocktail – $11.00
This cocktail tasted like twenty packets of sugar dumped into a glass of Powerade. Skip it, for sure.
