Handwashing is not something specific to Shabbat. It is something done
before you eat bread at any meal. I don't want to try to count the times I
had to squeze into a tiny area with a sink at a Jerusalem hole-in-the-wall
falafel joint to wash. I live on falafel some weeks, its filling and
*CHEAP*. A falafel in Pita here is about 8 shekels which is under $2. In a
laffa (much bigger bread) its still in the 10-12 range at most places.

I can't think of any really Jewish service practice. Its sort of like what
everyone else does but with more rules. ;) But if you have any kosher
questions please ask.
