Comment on The Chow Chow Cup Circa 1960 N.Y.C. by ilenebaranowitz

I have been searching the web for a recipe for the chow chow cup – I loved them! I remember the first time I found one in the Brooklyn neighborhood where I grew up. I was walking down one street and heard this “haunting” Chinese music and couldn’t wait to get to the next street to find the truck. Bought them whenever I could. Would love the recipe for the chow mein they had inside them – I have one of those pie makers by Emeril and would love to recreate something similar in it! Any ideas? outside of NY you can’t find good chow mein like they had in the chow chow cups!!!

This is horrible. This is no love for oneself. Poor kids

They had great french fries. But the best thing they had was a hot dog wrapped in an eggroll wrapper and deep fried. So bad for you but so delicious.

Yes, Alan.
I remember Ruby very well with his old black 50′s Plymouth with the knish heated unit in the trunk of the car. He removed top of the trunk and it was a tall chrome heated unit he had mounted in the trunk with slide out shelves in it for the knishes. He used to have his knish bakery next to my grandfathers building in Hurleyville..I remember them at 15 cents each.

I liked Grabstein’s in Canarsie, and Knish Nosh on Queens Blvd. (best Rugguleh in the city)

They also came up to Holiday Park in Woodborne. So did Ruby the knish man.

I should clarify that I was referring to Eman. I didn’t realize there was another female (with kids!!!) attempting the same thing.

Something is wrong with our society if we continue allowing these kids to be neglected this way.

I found this page while googling for updates on her as I figured she’d have died by now. It’s unfortunate what she’s doing to her kids. If she wants to eat herself to death that’s her choice, but she shouldn’t be allowed to do that while she has custody of children. I think they should be taken from her and put into a safe and healthy environment with an adult who can take care of them. She clearly is not offering that type of home.
