As you may know, Chanukkah began last night, starting an eight-day Jewish Festival of Lights. In fact, Governor Lingle who is Jewish lit the Menorah at last night's Festival of Lights ceremony at the Gateway Park in Waikiki.
With that comes the foods that are traditionally served during this holiday celebration.
A coworker of mine who is Jewish brought us some Latkes for breakfast this morning for us to try and a first for me. It's similar to a potato hash (hash brown), but also includes grated onions and flour (with an egg binder), fried and served with an apple sauce and sour cream condiment. Really tasty! I like it. Funny though, the other guys were asking where's the ketchup, Portuguese sausage and scrambled eggs to go with it. lol
She and her boyfriend also plan on serving the other traditional Chanukkah dishes over the next week, including Motza Ball Soup, Beef Brisket, Kugel, as well as Jelly Doughnuts.
She raves about this Kosher foods place in Manoa called Yudi's Deli. In fact that's where they'll be getting their Challah bread for the Sabbath this Friday. I'd like to check this place out. Although I'm not Jewish, I can totally get into this kinda' cuisine!
