Junior’s New Cupcakes Are Surprisingly Good
The two Midtown locations of Junior’s have decided to shake up their quietly reliable existences by recently adding cupcakes to the menu (apparently getting you fat off their cheesecake was not enough!) The five different flavors-chocolate/chocolate, chocolate with cream center, red velvet, peanut butter cup, and vanilla/vanilla-in honor of their 60th Anniversary, are all just under $4, and available in the Grand Central Terminal and on 44th btw. B’way+8th. I hit up the Grand Central locale when four of the five were available, decided on the Reese’s Peanut Butter one ($3.95) and found the cake quite enjoyable. It was fresh and moist, but a bit sweet on the frosting (then again, what brand-name bakery doesn’t add too much sugar?!) For the GCT cupcake loving commuters Junior’s might actually be more worthy of your money than the other cupcake places… although we still don’t quite understand why they’re not doing a cheesecake cupcake!

Their cheesecakes rule!

as for the cheesecake, i like veniero and some asian version…like Paris baguette, a korean bakery makes an aswome asian version of cheesecake…really light, moist and delicious with a subtle hint of cheese.

I haven’t hadf the veniero version, but I can’t believe it could exceed junior’s. Maybe equal, but NOT exceed–LOL
-
if you ate veniero’s, you will never go back to Junior’s.

thems fightin’ words! LOL I will have to make yet another food journey….

Is Veniero’s really that good? I never had either.
I only like Jr.’s chocolate moouse cheesecake since it has all that sweet, sweet chocolate on it. HAHA.

No, I was told Junior’s is making these fresh. They’re actually smaller than Crumbs’ monsters.

Never had the cupcakes.
BTW, they’re opening another kiosk in the Grand Central Market. The spot near Corrado and where Murray’s salami was (but moved over closer to the cheese) now has a Junior’s sign hanging there.
Junior, nothing they make is awsome and nothing they make is bad. actually i kinda like their beet salad.
