This week, we are launching Kitchen2Kitchen, a collaborative project by the Manhattan synagogues to promote patronage of our neighborhoods’ kosher restaurants and support them and their employees during the Covid Pandemic. 

Our inaugural restaurant is MY MOST FAVORITE FOOD. MMF opened in 1980, and relocated to the Upper West Side in 2010. Beyond their delicious salads, pastas and fish, MMF is best known for their time-honored desserts, which literally put them on the map. 

  • SPECIAL OFFER FROM MY MOST FAVORITE FOOD... Free delivery throughout Manhattan for the month of January.   Mention “Kitchen2Kitchen” to activate this special offer.   
  • SHARE THE LOVE - Consider purchasing a MMF gift certificate! 
  • Bakery Orders – order online at www.mymostfavorite.com
  • Restaurant/Food Orders – order at 212.580.5130

Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb

 

Creating something new in our lives may mean that we  have to leave where, and even, who we are. In a sense, we need to become "strangers" to who we are and where we were. Sometimes we have to strike out in new directions, never to return; we leave childhood behind and never go back. Or, sometimes it is if we have been pushed out, exiled,  from our home in but having hopes of returning renewed and rebuilt. We may leave our childhood family but we hope to be "reunited" with them later at a higher level.  Paradoxically, there may even be projects which require us to leave our existing home--a kind of exile-- in order to seek a life that is or could become more truly and profoundly our home.  We accept exile from the comfort of the present moral limits of our character, seeking to "jump to a new a level"--- to a space in which we hope to find that we are more deeply at home ethically. Or, we may leave our home seeking or accepting a mission to better our world, hoping that this better world will be our new home. Why do we do this? Why accept the loss and the exile? Are we sometimes in pursuit of the fulfillment of deeper dreams, promises and possibilities? Or, do we sometimes feel that if we stay any longer, we will be forever trapped or lost? Or both? One thing is for sure: In life, long term treading water is a mistake.
