Esther and Hester are sisters who live next door to each other. When a new neighbor moves in across the street, the great babka bake-off begins. In side-by-side kitchens, Esther and Hester each stir and spread and bake a babka for their new neighbor to enjoy on Shabbat. With cat Lester and dog Chester in tow, Esther and Hester arrive at the doorstep of their new neighbor Sylvester, who will gladly be their babka tester. With each shvester (sister) declared a winner, a delicious Shabbat meal is enjoyed by all. As the new friends say goodbye, Sylvester asks: "Now, which of you makes the best kugel?"
