What an unforgettable morning we had at our recent event featuring the incredible Ruhama Shitrit (@RuhamasFood)! The atmosphere was electric, filled with Israeli pride and Jewish joy as community members gathered to experience a delightful food demonstration led by the beloved celebrity chef. Ruhama’s warmth and generosity shone throughout the event. As she shared stories about her background and family, the audience was captivated, feeling like they were right in her kitchen. Her tips and tricks on cooking traditional Israeli cuisine showcased her expertise and sparked a sense of connection among attendees, both familiar faces and newcomers. It was heartening to see our community come together to celebrate culture through food, laughter, and shared experiences.
