Westchester- Where is the best Hungarian stuffed cabbage?
My mom is craving this specialty.
Any ideas where I can go to get her the best?

As far as I know it is unavailable in Westchester. The Hungarian version is different from others as it is not nearly as sweet. If you are so inclined, it is tedious but not that difficult to make yourself.

re: Maryld
multiple sources list this restaurant as closed. Seemingly replaced by Cafe Lola's. http://www.cafelolarestaurant.com/

I'd like to know this too since I make Hungarian food at home when I crave it. To my knowledge, there aren't any Hungarian restaurants in Westchester, but there are one or two left in NYC. Saying that, the Polish Center in Yonkers does take out catering and they do have stuffed cabbage listed on their menu. However, I don't know how it compares to the Hungarian version. And, there is/was a Polish deli on Nepperhan Ave, in Yonkers that makes stuffed cabbage and homemade kolbasz (kielbasa) that has received good reviews.

re: vinouspleasure
The prepared food that is available at the Polish deli is much better than the food that is served at the Polish Center IMO. I am thinking about my Hungarian grandmothers stuffed cabbage right now. Thanks to this thread I now understand why with the exception of hers I never cared for stuffed cabbage. I suppose hers was the only Hungarian version I ever had. The tomato sauce did not have that strange orange hue and didn't taste like thinned out sweetened tomato sauce. If you are going to take the time to check out the Polish Center or Polish Deli I would also recommend stopping into Yonkers Miasarnia on Lockwood Ave.
