Now that Passover is over, we can start thinking about where we will be for next year’s holiday. In order to plan appropriately, we’ve been thinking that it would be great to collect hundreds of personal reviews from this year’s program participants, then share the results with you over the summer. If you attended a [...]
Article by @AmySpiro, Israel correspondent Move over Ben Yehuda Street, there’s a new hotspot in Jerusalem, and it’s Emek Refaim. Of course that’s if hotspot means teeming with yeshiva and seminary students and tourists. The long street is located just South of the center of the city, about a 15 minute walk from downtown. Close [...]
I know. Burger King hasn't been in Israel in nearly 2 years since the Israeli burger chain, Burger Ranch (pronounced Booger R'aanch by Israelis), bought out BK in 2010, which was sad because I LOVED Burger King on Ben Yehuda 10+ years ago when I studied in Israel. Last year on my visit to Israel, [...]
The popular Kosher eatery in the lobby of the Empire State Building is no longer Kosher. The restaurant has reportedly been sold and will not be maintained as a Kosher pizzeria. H/T to @ElyRosenstock
An odd name, and an odd location (for a Kosher restaurant), Jezebel is seeking to create another unique kosher experience in NYC, along the likes of Pardes, Mike's Bistro, and Basil. According to this recent WSJ article, Jezebel may be the first kosher restaurant to serve nonmevushal wine (unpasterized kosher wine), which is a huge [...]
For the 2nd time in under a year, Pomegranate Bistro closed it's doors, this time permanently after serving dinner on Sunday, April 29th. The restaurant reopened in January after being closed for 7 months. The owners of the restaurant claimed that the lack of financial success as well as some legal issues forced the restaurant's [...]
After many months pushing off dining at Basil, and after spending a Shabbat in Crown Heights, I was excited to finally try the restaurant Motzei Shabbat, only to find out they were temporarily closed due to a gas leak. Luckily, a week later we were invited by fellow foodie friends to join them at Basil [...]
Article and photos by @AmySpiro, Israel correspondent There are many restaurants that get their clientele from their locations on main thoroughfares. But it’s the ones hidden away from the public eye – and heard about by way of mouth – that often have the tastiest fare. Such is the case with Basta Pasta, a tiny hole-in-the-wall [...]
Contributed by Rachel Moore | Last Date of Travel: February 2012 Four women turning forty years old, middle school friends who have not seen each other since they were sixteen, rent a Florida beach house together for 5 days. Sounds like the beginning of a chick flick doesn’t it? We had all been close [...]
Review submitted by Simone Somekh from Milan How many times, eating pizza in the USA, have we wondered how does the original Italian one actually taste? Thanks to Carmel, the best kosher pizzeria in Milan, Italy, now we won’t have to daydream anymore. Carmel is a well presented restaurant in the Jewish area of the [...]
Review submitted by Estee C. Address: 15001 Ventura Blvd. Woodland Hills, CA When did it open: 2 months ago Ambiance: Cool, valley chic. Light colors, modern fixings. Beautiful out door seating option. Upscale, trendy, super clean, but has a warm vibe. You feel very valued as a customer and welcome in this place. [...]
Wolf & Lamb Steakhouse, the popular midtown Manhattan restaurant, is opening up a new location in Midwood, on the corner of Coney Island Ave. & Ave. M. This space has been occupied by at least 1-2 other kosher restaurants over the past 10+ years, but hopefully this unique location will work well for the existing [...]
Thank you to @DaniOpp for your eagle eyes in catching & reporting this: Kosher Korner in the BankAtlantic Center, in Sunrise, FL (just west of Ft. Lauderdale & north of Miami) normally sells Glatt Kosher food at their stand for Panthers hockey games. Now, in the playoffs, they've been found to be selling "kosher-style" food [...]
The beloved Philly Kosher eatery, Max & David's of Elkins Park located in the Yorktown Plaza, is not reopening its doors after Passover, according to its owner Steve Katz (quoted by Philly.com). The restaurant was not profitable. Katz did note, however, that Max & David's will still live on as a food truck, with a [...]
