Can anyone direct me to some really authentic German bakeries in New
York City or Westchester, NY?

Thanks in advance!

just out of curiosity... what sorts of things would you expect to find
at a German bakery?

Not the OP but the following come to mind: apple strudel, hearty dark
rye bread, apple kuchen, bienenstich, black forest cake and this time of
year Christmas stollen.

thanks george

what about these things: strudel, gugelhupf, krapfen, knudlen

is there a meaningful distinction between "German" & "Viennese"?

Yes, as well as other regions. Even in a country as small as Denmark, there
are pastry specialties specific to certain regions, and they're not found
outside of those areas.

Don't forget "Hungarian"...NYC (Manhattan at least) once was home to
large numbers of Germans, Austrians, and Hungarians. They and their
businesses tended to cluster in the "Yorkville" neighborhood, there
were tons of restos, bakeries, coffee houses, and the like. These days
as the older folks have died off few vestiges of old Yorkville
remain...not unlike here in Chicago where a mere handful of the old
German - Central European places remain (but Chicago IS the only place
in North America with a Viennese Julius Meinl kaffeehaus).

Not the OP either but I'd expect to find brotchen, bread pretzels, and
lebkuchen.

This is an importer, not a bakery, but the product is delicious. I'm
unclear as to whether they have a brick and mortar outlet, insasmuch
as the address is a suite.
