You’d never think of Pizza as a Japanese delicacy. You probably wouldn’t find Sushi and Chicken Tandouri on the same menu. It’s difficult to imagine getting a T-bone steak in a Cantonese Chinese restaurant. Now guess where you might find chicken soup and kneidlach; Challah (a special, pleated bread); sweet red wine; gefilte fish and ‘chrain’; cholent? How about Chamin and couscous? (No, not at your local Italian. Try again.). In many Jewish homes on Friday night or Saturday afternoon you’ll find many of these foods. |
