Brooklyn Heights, The Pushcart That God Blessed

Brooklyn Heights, Over the past few years, dining options dwindled in the area and several kosher restaurants in the neighborhood closed because they could no longer afford to pay their rising rents, leaving local Chasidim with few places to eat.

Brauch Yehuda Ganz, decided therefor to open a kosher pushcart: Rabbi Shmiel Berger of Williamsburg, Brooklyn, inspects the cart regularly to verify that it meets Chasidic dietary requirements, and he said he knew of no other kosher pushcarts in the borough.
"There are a lot of pushcarts in New York, but Jewish people eat only from places with supervision," he said, referring to rabbinical supervision, a service he provides to a host of restaurants and catering businesses in Williamsburg and Borough Park.
