New York deli man Arnold Reuben claimed he was the first to serve cheesecake. But it was his competitor, Leo Lindemann, who hired away Reuben’s pastry chef to re-create the dessert at his place, Lindy’s, and made it an icon. Lindy’s is gone now, but the cheesecake recipe remains. —Arthur Schwartz, from “Cream of New York” (November 2006)
