Children’s Museum

A pioneer in education, Brooklyn Children's Museum was the first museum created expressly for children when it was founded in 1899. Its success has sparked the creation of 300 children's museums around the world. With award-winning, hands-on exhibits and innovative use of its collections, the Museum engages children from pre-school to high school in learning adventures. It is the only children's museum in New York City, and one of few in the country, to be accredited by the American Association of Museums.

The restaurant's slogan - "We cure our own roast beef and our CHICKEN SOUP will cure everything else", has placed Mendy's pretty high up on New York's Kosher map.

Mendy's Restaurant is a Glatt Kosher Delicatessen in New York City that's under the strict supervision of the OU. Their matzah ball soup has become an American culinary classic, known all around the world and their Famous Split Pea Soup has been featured on "Seinfeld".
