Schedule

Sephardic Holiday Dinner - 7:30 PM
Kick off the New Year with great food, community, and tradition.
Sephardic Simanim Seder
We will begin the dinners with the Sephardic Simanim Seder, based on the Babylonian Talmud, Tractate Horayot 12a, where Abaye, one of the greatest scholars of the Talmud, teaches in Aramaic: “Simana Milta Hee” — a sign carries meaning. The idea is especially powerful at the beginning of something new: just as a new king would be anointed near a spring as a sign that his kingdom should flow and continue, we begin the New Year with symbolic foods like pumpkin, leeks, dates, and apples with honey, each representing blessings for sweetness, success, abundance, and a good year ahead.
Our in-house chef, Ronit, will be serving a festive meal full of authentic Sephardic flavors — shared around the table with young professionals and members of the community.
In honor and remembrance of September 11, we will recite a special prayer for the United States of America.
Come celebrate, connect, and start your year with warmth, community, and amazing food.
Tizku Le'Shanim Rabot! Shanah Tova U'metuka!
