It is supposed to be a cakey cookie not cake, it is supposed to have vanilla and chocolate glaze, not frosting. I would love it if someone could give me ideas in the Bronx, or Midtown, but any suggestions will be considered Sun Oct 26 09:38:11 -0700 2008 211106 katjenpiz 1 4131155 Several threads on this. My list order (1) Wm. Greenberg's; (2) Pick-a-bagel; (3) Zabar's (used to be dead last but has improved); (4) Hot and Crusty (when fresh). Moishe's? For a nostalgia trip but insufficient turnover to keep them fresh. Mon Oct 27 05:05:06 -0700 2008 4129809 80872 addictedtolunch 2 5039352 Ditto on Greenberg's.

I used to be able to get good B&W in most bakeries, but not anymore. I can't stand to see them wrapped in plastic wrap in a bakery. Makes me think the whole lot of their products are not baked often.

I had an argument with someone once about whether they should be called B&Ws or half moons and then I finally saw a half moon and realized the two are different. B&Ws are cakey (white/vanilla) cookies and glazed as you said, and then half moons are more cake-like and can have either a white or chocolate cake base, and frosting. I hope you haven't found too many half moon types in the NYC area...hopefully that type isn't infiltrating down here too much!

I had one about as good from a vendor at the Greenmarket in Zuccotti Park in the Financial Distirct. But I'm rarely in the area when the greenmarket is on and the last couple of times that I was, I couldn't find the vendor.
