Green's Babka

Using their mother’s recipes from the 1930s, the Green children opened a kosher Brooklyn bakery in her honor. This family bakery has handcrafted rugelach, hamentashen and more Eastern European goodies since 1980, but it’s their knockout chocolate babka bread that has the entire city hooked. Named the best traditional babkas in NYC (which is basically saying the best in the world) by SeriousEats, their swirly loaves are sold in the city’s best delis and markets, including many of the city's icons. Judging by its insanely Instagram-able swirls of chocolate, we’re leaving behind cupcakes and donuts for the next biggest trend.

Because nobody puts babka in the corner.
