        <content>I did a search and couldn't find any reference to this wonderful place. So here it goes.

In one of our trips to Brighton Beach we decided to change our cell phones and got a tip from the Russian guy at the cellular store* - best bread in the neighborhood, in his opinion, is either at a Turkish bakery on Ave. Z or Cherry Hill market. We drove a couple of minutes to Cherry Hill and are in love with the place. Clean, excellent food, and the cherry on top: open 24/7. AND  there's a parking lot.

Breads are indeed superlative, everything we tried from the salad/cooked food counter was good to excellent (worth mentioning the rabbit in cream sauce I got the last time - I was expecting dry, overcooked meat but boy, was I wrong!), even the pastries were better than your average Brighton Beach food store. Other stuff we get there: Odessa brandza  and some wonderful pork sausage, the Israeli Salad is superlative, a so called "youth" (or "healthy") salad, a tongue and radish salad, baked giant beans... and there's always more. 
Also worth mentioning there's a Cafe on the second floor.

See the pictures in my flickr set (click on slideshow in the upper right corner) and judge for yourself if it's worth the trip. Mind you, we're traveling from Sunnyside for this place - I'd say it's worth it.

      <content>Late this summer I stopped in with a friend, only after we'd been eating here and there for several hours, and I couldn't manage more than a beverage. However, Cherry Hill (which also has at least one other branch, near King's Highway) is very impressive. My first thought, as yet to be supported by in-depth eating, is that it rivals M&amp;I International Foods in the breadth and quality of its offerings, with the advantage of many more young, bilingual counter staff who are happy to explain what's what.</content>
