Arthurs: Home of the Nosh

A GLOBE & MAIL BESTSELLER • JEWISH BOOK AWARDS WINNER • CBC'S THE CURRENT RECOMMENDED COOKBOOKS OF 2025

A must-have breakfast, brunch, and lunch cookbook brimming with recipes for Jewish comfort food—co-authored by the husband-and-wife team behind Montreal’s famous Arthurs Nosh Bar.

Take a trip to Arthurs Nosh Bar, the family-owned luncheonette that has garnered international praise for serving Jewish classics with a twist. Named after the co-owner Raegan’s larger-than-life father, Arthur (who loved a good nosh!), the restaurant is regularly lined up around the block for their in-demand OTT breakfasts, brunches, and lunches. Imagine teeming towers of decadent pancakes bathing in toppings, colossal fried chicken gleaming with hot sauce, and unbeatable challah french toasts. These delectable, easy-to-follow recipes (more than 115 of them!) are all shared here for the first time.

Take your noshing to the next level with…

• BREAKFAST & BRUNCH: Bring the true vibe of Arthurs home with the Syrniki pancakes that spurned Arthurs’ round-the-corner lineups, sweet Karolina Waffles named after the book’s photographer, or the savory classic Matzo Brei.

• SOUPS, SALADS & SANDWICHES: Try Arthurs’ perfectly balanced Matzo Ball Soup and the McArthur sandwich, and you might never be hungry again!
• DELI & NOSH: Upgrade your fridge staples with Miami Chicken Salad or Smoked Salmon & Gravlax. Treat yourself to a delicious Schnitzel Plate, crispy, soft Latkes, or craveable Pierogies made with fresh summer corn and lobster.
• SHABBAT: Celebrate rest time with Lilliane’s Roasted Lamb Shoulder with Saffron, slow-cooked for maximum tenderness, or the traditional Shabbat staple Dafina that stews overnight—served with a side of Diet Coke and an argument in Alex’s family.

• DRINKS & DESSERT: Wash down the nosh with peachy Frosé, and always (always) save room for dessert—like Arthurs’ signature Deli Sprinkle Cookies or one of their incredible pies, donuts or cheesecake.

Like Arthurs itself, this cookbook is somewhere you’ll want to spend time in. It’s full of big restaurant energy, and the passion and commitment to Jewish cooking leaps off every page, all showcased in a joyful design, with gorgeous photography and playful illustrations. Open this book and you’ll be instantly giggling as you read through the authors' hilarious stories—these are authors who did not censor themselves!—and feeling at ease as you cook through their comforting recipes. Arthurs: Home of the Nosh is the perfect cookbook for anyone who loves to cook and everyone who has ever craved a nosh.
