About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. Late one Friday afternoon, as a delivery driver approached Continental Kosher Bakery, he swore he heard laughter coming from inside—even though the shop had been closed for hours. Curious, he peered through the window and saw nothing but empty shelves. Then, out of nowhere, an old radio started playing lively Jewish folk songs. Startled, he knocked on the door—and it opened with a creak, revealing a grinning baker who explained, ‘Ah, you must be here for our special Shabbat treat! We stay open late on Fridays.’ The delivery driver laughed sheepishly, realizing his mistake.
2. One morning, while a regular was picking up his daily treat from Continental Kosher Bakery, an unusual announcement crackled over the store’s intercom: ‘Attention please—our secret recipe for perfect bagels is now available in liquid form. Just add water!’ A delivery driver rushed back to the bakery with excitement, adding water to the mysterious bottle. Minutes later, he emerged holding a soggy box that seemed more like a science experiment than breakfast. A neighbor passing by asked curiously, 'What happened?' The driver shrugged and replied cheerfully, 'I guess today’s bagels come with their own rain cloud!'
3. On a hot summer day, an elderly gentleman walked into Continental Kosher Bakery, his eyes sparkling with excitement. As he reached for the last slice of cherry pie, something unusual caught his eye—a small, mischievous creature darted between the shelves. The old man followed it curiously, only to discover that it was just a mischievous squirrel gathering nuts for winter. With a smile, he bought two slices of pie—one for himself and one as an apology to the furry thief. That evening, as he shared his treat with a neighbor, they both laughed heartily over the little baker’s adventure.
4. On a chilly autumn morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Continental Kosher Bakery and noticed something odd on the sign above the door: ‘Today’s special—fresh bagels cure what ails you.’ Curious, he stepped inside only to hear the shopkeeper announce over the intercom, ‘And don’t forget, our rugelach can solve any disagreement!’ As days passed, more locals started dropping by for their daily fix of baked goods and advice. Soon enough, whenever there was an argument in town, everyone would say, 'Let's go see Mr. Katz at Continental Kosher Bakery—he’ll sort it out!' And amazingly, they always did.
