[Sca-cooks] Kosher Feast

[Zachary Kessin]

Why middle eastern, well a few reasons. First here in *ISRAEL* its a lot
of what is avalable and cheap. In the bible it says that israel is known
for 5 fruits (Grapes, Figs, Dates, Pomigranets and i forget the 5th) so I
have an urge to serve them. Plus they are cheap and easy to get here. The
truth be told we are planning semi-regular feasts, so we will probably do
a great many things over time.

I do want to serve Icelandic Chicken (minus the bacon ofcourse)
