Einat Admony’s fast-casual kosher Taim (tagline: “It’s a vegetarian mecca”) has made good on its promise to get New Yorkers feasting on chickpeas and pitas with the opening of its newest Financial District location, which happens to be dangerously close to the Forward’s own offices.
Taim is a Hebrew word meaning tasty or delicious. After beginning as a tiny West Village storefront where Admony could serve all the sabich, s’rug and amba her customers could handle, it expanded into Midtown, NoLita and Flatiron locations.
So between Balaboosta and Kish Kash and Taim Fidi, we here at the Forward aren’t exactly lacking for Einat Admony options. But which casual Mediterranean style lunch joint will reign supreme?

Why I became the Forward’s Editor-in-Chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
