SAMPLE PAST MENU
Brian and I think long and hard about menus. For Rosh Hashanah, there is a rich tradition to work with of simanim, culinary omens for a sweet and successful new year. Many of them involve plays on words in Hebrew or Aramaic - that ensure that our enemies will get cut off (yikartu - a pun on karti, leeks) or that we be fruitful and multiply (like fish). Look for the following simanim reflected in these menus: apples, dates, fish, leeks, squash, carrots, beets, and black-eyed peas. The meals are pescatarian, and we can accommodate dietary needs upon request, including vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free, etc.
