Serious Eats is hosting a drawing for a   Russ & Daughters New York Nostalgia package for the second year in a row in their “Seriously Delicious Holiday Food Giveaway: Russ & Daughters edition.”

You have until 3:00 p.m. today to visit their site and answer the contest question, “What is your favorite New York brunch food?” in the comments section of that post, to be entered to win.

Our favorite brunch food?  Well, the New York Nostalgia package is a good start. For a taste of New York, look no further. Experience the nostalgic power of food with Russ & Daughters’ famous Gaspé Nova, sliced Smoked Sable, House-Cured Herring Fillets in cream sauce with pickled onions, All Natural Cream Cheese with Scallion, hand-rolled New York Bagels, Traditional Rugelach and a piece of Old-Fashioned   Marble Halvah.

In  their contest post, Serious Eats founder Ed Levine writes,

“I’ve known Russ & Daughters’ Mark Federman and his family ever since I came to New York 32 years ago. When I knew very few people here I used to just come to Russ & Daughters to kibitz and just feel like I belonged somewhere. It’s a place I still visit for shelter from any storm. And for the company and the Russ family’s incredible food. They know smoked fish like very few other people in this world.”

Enter now. You have two hours until they draw a winner from among  their comments/contest entries and less than 24 hours until Saturday brunch.

In honor of the Serious Eats contest, just mention “SERIOUSRUSS” when ordering on the phone through Sunday to get 10% off your order of a Russ & Daughters gift package.  *Code valid only through Sunday, December 14, 2008 for gift packages ordered via telephone: 212-475-4880 or (800) RUSS-229.*
