Gertel's was rumored to have the best rugelach in the city. Finally got down to Hester one day with my friend but instead of Gertel's there was a hole. A big fat about-to-build-a-new-glass-condominium-for-people-who-could-afford-that-much-a-month-for-that-little-a-space hole. The guy in the fabric store across the street said the Gertel guy had sold for what he thought was a lot but then realized he shouldn't of still had to work and he had to start all over again in Brooklyn.
