Well guess that is whut makes it Noo Yawk style cuz it have meringue on top. Frank Sinatra's old chef used to make a mean one. It tasted like maybe it had some grated cheddar mixed in with the Cream Cheese. It came out sorta crumbly but had a good flavor. He claimed that was NY style. Wonder whut kind that was?
