You may want to give the matzo ball soup at Mile End a try. It won a taste off at Bon Appetit in 2011:
I always used to like the Carnegie version, but as I have gotten older it doesn’t like me as well. The Carnegie matzo balls are pretty substantial and difficult to digest. Mile End’s are lighter and more flavorful. I also find the ME broth better.
While both Carnegie and ME have big matzo balls, I have also run into versions with more, but smaller matzo balls and more veg which I like better than the big balls.
And happy New Year to you!
