S&S Cheesecake in the Bronx has been whipping up iconic New York-style cheesecakes since 1960, serving rich, creamy slices that keep locals coming back.
"There are a lot of so-called New York cheesecakes, but since 1960, there’s only been one S&S Cheesecake. And they might make the very best of them. Still made from the original recipe, this smooth, dense cheesecake is only lightly sweet, with a subtle tang, and a soft, delicately browned crust. The flavors available at S&S include strawberry, pineapple, and chocolate, but we’re not sure it’s possible to improve upon the purity and the simplicity of the classic plain. This small cafe is a family business and supplies various local shops and restaurants, including Peter Luger, but their brick-and-mortar bakery is in the Bronx, in Kingsbridge. Open 8:30am-3:30pm weekdays, S&S is a place where the line between decor and storage blurs: a camera tripod here, a podium there, and even a massive antique mixer by the door. It’s all a little chaotic, but that only adds to the charm. photo credit: Molly Fitzpatrick" - Molly Fitzpatrick
