25 Iconic Dishes That Define NYC

"The Dish: Sour Cream Donut This Greenpoint shop feels like a 1950s time capsule, from the counter seating to the staff's mint-green uniforms. But there's nothing stale about their donuts, figuratively or otherwise. The apple crumb and the red velvet are first-ballot hall of famers, but the sour cream donut in particular is simple perfection. We love the contrast of textures in every bite: the soft, moist interior, the crispy crust, and the sweet (but not too sweet) glaze." - bryan kim, sonal shah, willa moore, will hartman, molly fitzpatrick, neha talreja
