Murray's Sturgeon Shop - New York, NY

There is an unbelievable luxury about the way Murray’s sturgeon tastes and feels on the tongue – as rich as fish can possibly be. While it is rightfully known as the specialty of the house, Murray's other kinds of smoked fish are equally notable: velvet-textured salmon either Nova Scotia-style or salt-cured, whitefish, whole chubs, and trout.

"Murray's has set high standards of smoked-fish quality since 1946."
Michael Stern

"Known as kugel, noodle pudding is tender and slightly sweet -- a great companion for a plate of warm beef brisket."
Michael Stern

"The meat on these smoked fish fairly falls away when you poke it with a fork. Gently smoky but devastatingly rich, these fish are a true delicatessen delicacy."
Michael Stern

"Sable is silk-smooth and refined; with a toasted bagel and a little cream cheese, it's an incredibly luxurious meal."
