Carmel, California is offering a match made in heaven not usually found in that neck of the woods at this year's Jewish Food Festival, on Sunday, August 29.
From 10.30am-4pm, the cultural festival will offer arts, crafts, live entertainment and educational tours.
What's better than a steaming hot pastrami on fresh rye bread with real sour pickles and cole slaw, along with matzo-ball soup, blintzes, noodle kugel, potato knishes, challah, apple strudel, hamantschen, rugelach and mandelbrot?
There's no Jewish deli on the Monterey Peninsula so these delights are restricted to visits to larger Jewish communities or to talented home cooks who follow the culinary traditions of their ancestors.
Making the food of our ancestors taste even better, Dr. Alan Rosen will man a genealogy table to help people find their roots.
And there's much more, such as a Jewish wedding ceremony enactment, an arts and crafts fair, a tour of the synagogue, and many musical groups throughout the day.
The annual event - this is the 23rd - is run by Congregtion Beth Israel in Carmel.
