To me, one of food's central utilizations is as a tool of learning and bridging cultures. It tells stories, recounts history, and builds futures. Religion and food also have a rich and intertwined history, and it's always worth learning more about how each religion teaches peace to the world through its kitchen!

Jewish Food Fair
Jewish food rocks my socks. I have to admit though, I don't keep a kosher kitchen, nor do I know all the rules, so when I try to make kosher dishes it usually just comes out only Jew-ish. Luckilly, a few kosher kitchen friends of mine pointed me out to this local food fest and told me to make sure to spread the word! Make sure you get your fill, and absorb the rich culture!

Are you going to either one of these events? I am going to Amador during the day on Saturday, but contemplated dinner at the Armenian FF afterwards... Let me know...
