Is the world ready for year-round, tarted-up matzo brei?

MatzahBrei, which started as a Bushwick pop-up, will dish out its fancy vegetarian spins on the Passover staple all winter at Bryant Park in Manhattan.

If “exotic” to you means onions in your brei, brace yourself for the Monica — mushrooms, spinach, gruyere and dijon mustard — and the Xavier, with avocado, four-cheese blend and, um… peach-mango salsa.

A message from our CEO & publisher Rachel Fishman Feddersen

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.

The coming year promises to be filled with more complex and historic developments. We are entering an era where independent, fact-based Jewish journalism will be more important than ever. We need to be ready for whatever 2025 will bring, and with your help, we can be.

We’ve set a goal to raise $260,000 by December 31. That’s an ambitious goal, but one that will give us the resources we need to invest in the high quality news, opinion, analysis and cultural coverage that isn’t available anywhere else.
