Check out the 'Sturgeon Queens'
The trailer for "Sturgeon Queens" has been making the rounds lately on the blogs… Filmmaker Julie Cohen's documentary takes a look at the 100-year history of Russ & Daughters on East Houston… featuring a mix of regulars as well as celebrity customers like Maggie Gyllenhaal … Eater notes a screening coming up on May 20 at the JCC CineMatters festival on the Upper West Side. Otherwise, you'll have to wait until PBS airs it in the fall…
Meanwhile, Russ & Daughters is celebrating their 100th anniversary this year… a time when they are expanding with a new cafe around the corner on Orchard Street…

ReplyDeleteWhile waiting to be served take in the neighborhood chat and see why a family run business is the best kind of business. You can feel the love as soon as you walk into the place.
ReplyDeleteI like to think of Barney Greengrass as the Sturgeon King and Russ&Daughters as the Sturgeon General.
