B"H
I have never understood why we are willing to spend huge amounts of money on quality everything--and then eat in some dive with no atmosphere or poor quality food.
Seriously, I cringe when I have to go out for dinner with my husband or friends. I would prefer cooking myself--the quality is much better and I am not only aware of such exotic ingredients as salt, pepper, garlic, and onions (spices that seem beyond most kosher establishments), I am also proficient at using jalapeños, cinnamon, and even saffron!
It is good to know that Kosher is growing up, at least in New York and L.A. (although I have eaten in some pretty wonderful Kosher places in Miami too! Why aren't they listed here?).
Now, can we work on those terrible containers at the Bar Mitzvahs and weddings--you know the containers . . . the ones that take a blow-torch to get open and make the food taste like plastic?
Can someone please design a kosher food catering container that doesn't change the taste of the food?
(It is the containers that make it the food taste that bad, right?)
Sigh.
