Note to self: latkes, blintzes and potato knish at the Carnegie Deli

Hanukkah is this week and the only time I had latkes was in college; in fact, the first Sunday in September when we moved the freshmen into the dorms. Those latkes were great, although they didn't offer us sour cream and applesauce.

Margalit from What Was I Thinking? is celebrating Hanukkah with those delectable latkes...so that reminds me...the next time I head down to Carnegie Deli in New York, I would imagine those latkes will probably be triple, even quadruple, the size of regular latkes. The blintzes could be the size of giant burritos, and I almost always get the huge potato knishes that are a mountain of mashed potatoes with lots of spices, wrapped around in a doughy crust a la Beef Wellington...
