Roosevelt Island is supporting two Jewish congregations, but Gristede's had no round challahs (traditional for the holiday) or chicken liver many, many people like chopped liver to start a traditional Jewish meal, even those who don't keep kosher. They did have a small supply of horseradish roots that looked as if they had been kept in storage since last Passover.
I didn't see any moon cakes for Chinese new year either...
Nor were there dates in quantity for breaking the Ramadan fast. Gristede's is not biased, just incompetent.
