Greetings!  

I hope everyone had a great first 2 days of Succos. Below you will find a lot of interesting news, events and openings along with an updated list of restaurants with succahs. Although, with the inclement weather here in the Northeast, you might be able to sit inside.

We also announce the winner of last week's Kosher Round of the NTD International Chinese Culinary Competition in Times Square.  Scroll down to see who won along with photos and video!

And congratulations to us for surpassing the 1,000 "like" mark on both our new "Great Kosher Restaurants International" and
