As always, great Shabbos meals by my wife. Worked Saturday night and ended up at Sammys for pizza at 12:30am. You would think there are no kitchens in “the apartments” as the place, both inside and outside, was a YU-Stern young couple marriage fest - 21 year old married kids all over the place. (Don’t we all remember those days - man was life easier)
As usual, the food was excellent, and since Yossi (the owner) is now back from Israel for the summer, the place runs great. Proved the point about absentee food business ownership.
Had a great BBQ Sunday afternoon by my friend’s (somehow I don’t think I was supposed to eat three burgers, but who can resist sautéed onions in your burger? I know I can’t) followed by the One Israel Fund tasting event.
Sushi and fruit were great. Eden Wok is usually on the money with their sushi, and Michael W. can cut up fruit like I showed him 20 years ago J (okay it was Tony Silvestri that showed him).
The wine tasting was one of the rare times I’ve seen a non-Baron Herzog/Kedem job in town. It was a selection of many non-mevushal wines, most not carried by Kedem, from a guy out in Long Island. I would have posted this last night, but didn’t want the Kedem crew to escort him out of town, or worse.
Today is the Yavneh Academy Golf outing - food has always been great and plentiful, hence I’m going late so I can keep my cholesterol low. Will be there by 4pm to check out the new caterer this year – Seasons of Manhattan – review to follow.
Enjoy the day and please send me any comments, guest posts, etc., either on the blog or to thekosherkritic@gmail.com.
