As Andrea Strong wrote in the Mobil Travel Guide, "Maury Rubin, the owner and creator of City Bakery, would probably have a warrant taken out on him if he ever closed City Bakery. Literally, New Yorkers would revolt and hunt him down.... Just try and leave without loosening your belt buckle." Winner of no fewer than five "Best of New York" Awards, New York Magazine said "In a city of insipid—if not downright dangerous—salad bars, City Bakery's is a thing apart: gorgeously eclectic, culinarily inspired, effortlessly seasonal."
