    "A #Melbourne #Greek #restaurant has rejected online hate and a #bomb threat after hosting a joint #Jewish-Greek cultural evening.

    On #Facebook, the owner insists it will keep bringing the communities together. Last Friday the #MediterraneanGreekTavern in #Elsternwick staged a night that mixed the two traditions.

    Guests dressed in white, #challah sat beside Greek dishes, prayers were said, and a #bouzouki band played #HavaNagila alongside music from #ZorbatheGreek.

    The dinner marked six months of #Shabbat Club #Australia.

    [...]

    Earlier nights have been held at other Melbourne spots. Friday’s larger gathering had a long waiting list.

    The next day the restaurant posted warmly about the young crowd. Supportive replies came first, then a surge of abuse via #socialmedia.

    Commenters called the hosts sell-outs, accused them of supporting “#genocide killers,” urged that #Jews be #deported, and one reportedly openly called for the tavern to be #bombed."

  6. "In the central cities of the #Brazilian #Amazon, mainly #Manaus and #Belém, local #restaurants observe a century-old custom of serving a festive #brunch every Sunday. The special #menu includes dishes representing the diverse communities that make up #Amazonian society. Alongside local dishes and others that arrived from #Japan or #England, two surprising additions appear: #couscous and #dafina, a traditional #Jewish- #Moroccan #stew for #Shabbat. They only offer a hint of the remarkable story of the Jewish community of the Brazilian Amazon.

    The story of this unique community, which today numbers only about 2,000 #Jews, alongside an estimated 300,000 non-Jewish descendants, begins in 1850. Or, in fact, it begins in 1492, when Jews were #expelled..."

  7. #Shabbos #Chanukah seems like a good time to remind you all:
    Potato kugel is basically a giant baked #latke, and forgive me for saying, IMO, quite a bit better 🔥
