One of my students, who is observing the fast for Yom kippur today, invited my husband and me over to break our fasts together and have dinner. I thought this was a very sweet gesture.
I’d like to bring something. Any suggestions?
Re: What to bring
A chocolate babka?
Re: What to bring
hehe not a bad idea.
the other problem is that all the kosher bakeries are closed today for the holiday. i may look around a bit more. otherwise, maybe a basket of fruit or something.
Re: What to bring
Take something from your own country.
Re: What to bring
^The problem is the kosher restrictions. Otherwise I'd make pakoray or samosas or something.
Re: What to bring
Pakoray are not kosher? lol
Re: What to bring
Some people have very strict rules -- even non-meat items need to be cooked in pans where only kosher foods have been cooked, in order to be technically kosher.
I don't think this family is that strict, but on a holiday, they might be more observant.
Re: What to bring
a lot of chocolate.. always works..:biggthumb
Re: What to bring
Maybe Bakhlava? :)
Re: What to bring
Take some kosher deli meat tray. Or the fruit basket is not a bad idea.
Also, every supermarket has a kosher section...check and see there.
Re: What to bring

Re: What to bring
Sahar how do u know it was delicious? :o
Re: What to bring

Re: What to bring
take a dozen Hebrew National hot dogs
Re: What to bring
Take a nice challah bread with raisins and cinnamon. It is a jewish holiday bread.
Re: What to bring
I was hesitant about bringing something too Jewish, because they would probably know how to get the best quality ones, and I'd just be bringing somethign that seemed nice, but I didn't really know how to distinguish.
Anyway, yes I ate the cake at the "jewftaari."
Re: What to bring
lol at jewftaari
