This was written by Deborah Dash Moore, who wrote one of the articles in Nosh and Kibbutz. It’s a great history of the significance of cafeterias in NYC in general, I’ve photographed her history of Dubrow’s. I did not know the original incorporate name was Dubrow’s Pure Food!
I also didn’t know about the court case against the waiters union in 1932! This reflects my cousin Joe’s oral history about union busting activity occurring in my family’s restaurant.

Hi! I just discovered your blog! My family came to New York from Eastern Europe in waves from the 1880s through the 1930s. Thank you for sharing and preserving NYC history.
