The producers are currently out to writers to help craft the story of the landmark institution.
Russ & Daughters is a historic deli opened by Joel Russ on New York’s Lower East Side in 1914. Today, it remains a culinary icon, world-famous for providing the highest quality, when it comes to smoked fish, caviar, bagels, bialys, babka and other Jewish delicacies.
