It was good, came in a real glass, but at $3.50 seemed a little steep.<br /><br />Yesterday in the West Village I stopped at La Bonbonniere on Eighth Avenue. It was probably the most well-constructed egg cream I've had, with a clear strata effect and white foam. Yet at $3.80 I again felt ripped off (their beers are only $4). <br /><br />Eisenberg's offers a top-notch egg cream (albeit in a plastic cup) for just two bucks, which I think keeps them top of the tree (just).James Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04462181592584893568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-30729340543903305532009-08-14T07:48:30.758-04:002009-08-14T07:48:30.758-04:00http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/641218http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/641218Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-89907636243743794932009-08-12T20:37:13.064-04:002009-08-12T20:37:13.064-04:00You fail to mention one important thing that has f...You fail to mention one important thing that has fallen to the wayside - the accompaniment of an egg cream with a pretzel. It was the way I always had them, from street vendors who used to sell them on the lower east side, every time I was in the city with my mother or grandparents. I yearn for it frequently.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04362859175287085919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-83808206773436923012009-08-12T14:59:50.130-04:002009-08-12T14:59:50.130-04:00Ray's every time--the best ever!!!

I spent more time telling tourists that there were not eggs in them than selling them.<br /><br />I would never serve an egg cream if the foam was not white.<br /><br />Anyway, I love Tom's but whipped cream and nuts is an abomination.ChickenUnderwearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06025866506646843697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-62983393666085312612009-08-12T10:00:22.200-04:002009-08-12T10:00:22.200-04:00Eisenberg's is good, But Sammy's Roumanian...Eisenberg's is good, But Sammy's Roumanian is far, far superior.

They had chocolate egg creams, vanilla egg creams, and lime rickeys (my favorite...and they were red, not green).<br /><br />There don't seem to be any places like that anymore.
