Louis Zabar may have died in Dade County according to the Florida Death Index, 1877-1998. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 01:24, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is it just me, or does this article list the locations of two separate stores, but not Zabar's? 168.98.67.10 (talk) 18:52, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

(moved here from comments subpage) Good start, but can be improved. -- Warfreak 07:46, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

the paragraph about the fake lobster salad issue has grown this sentence: "This controversy occurred despite the fact that the ingredient list on the container had always clearly indicated that the salad was made with langostino, not lobster." that line is factually incorrect and might be ADVERT-POV tainted. this is a place for sourced truth, not for corporate public relations propaganda. the unsourced sentence is at odds with the news coverage at the time and with the actual label specimen pictured here. it is plainly visible that the product was labeled: "LOBSTER SALAD *WITH A BAGEL OR A ROLL* WILD FRESH WATER CRAYFISH, CELERY, MAYONNAISE, SALT, SUGAR" --no mention of the word Langostino and certainly not 'always clearly indicated' on the ingredients list. perhaps --maaybe-- labels changed at a later time to use the word Langostino (a good move for them since few people know the obscure word, but it might appear to the unschooled like some sort of lobster [hey, starts with a L] and sound a lot better than crayfish) but labels at the time didn't use that word.

Did Zabar's have an earlier West Side location before it settled in its current location in the 80s? I seem to recall a Zabar's in the 90s, but that was long, long ago, and I could be mistaken.68.104.199.181 (talk) 14:24, 17 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The article fails to mention when the 80th street store was opened. It tells me a great deal about a lobster controversy, but nothing about the store's opening or whether there was an earlier location on Broadway on about 92nd street.Abenr (talk) 18:24, 17 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
