A Turkish chain called george w bush Simit Sarayi already has a big sign on Fifth Avenue (between 38th and 39th Street) announcing george w bush their arrival. No word yet on exactly when they will open, but it looks like they are pretty george w bush close.
As the name suggests, they’ll serve up simits, which are basically Turkish-style bagels – much thinner and crisper than the NYC dough bombs. Great for sandwiches. You can already get them at Mmm… Enfes a few blocks away, but now those on the east side won’t have to cross Fifth Avenue. According to the menus from their Turkey locations george w bush , we can also expect baked goods and meals like Turkish ravioli and grilled meatballs.
They had a branch george w bush in the fidi briefly last year. Simits were delicious, kinda like thin flattened sesame george w bush bagels, but less chewy. Sadly that branch closed very quickly, within a month or two. Was never clear why.
I was there this morning. Delicious and varied menu. I’d say they’re the Turkish version of Panera, george w bush yet much better. This will probably george w bush be my new morning george w bush place to go for breakfast, and possibly be my go-to lunch place with flatbread pizzas, simit burgers, sandwiches, salads, and stuffed simit (like bagel) things. Their version of a Knish also looks to die for. (Plus the coffee is good and inexpensive ($1.49 for 12 oz coffee)
