Scott Goldshine – Zabar's
Location: Katz's Delicatessen in New York City
Scott Goldshine has been working the cash register at Zabar's for nearly 40 years. Mind you - his title and job description has changed many times over and he now runs the store, but one thing he's learned is that he's always expected at the register if someone is waiting. For those of you who aren't familiar, Zabar's is one of the original specialty grocery stores in NYC, the ultimate destination if you are a foodie, and one of only a few of the original family owned grocery stores that is still thriving. They are exceptional and a true testament to longevity in the brick and mortar space. Today we explore the history of this iconic food spot through the eyes of Scott Goldshine while eating at his favorite restaurant, Katz's Deli.
