From Captain Lynne Kurzweil:

Shomrei hosted 17 grateful guests this past Tuesday night. Chef Aileen Grossberg, with the assist of Steve Hoviss, whipped up a delicious and healthy meal consisting of celery leek soup with crispy potato and celery leaf garnish, green salad with toasted baguette, roasted cod with choice of three sauces, oven roast potatoes and buttered green beans. Dessert was rice pudding with blueberries, chocolate babka and fresh fruit. Cereal bars were given out as a takeaway. The meal was consumed with gusto and almost everyone enjoyed seconds of everything! Adult helper was Susan Rosenblatt and teens were Teddy and Amalia. Leonard, Adrienne and Joseph rounded out our staff. Another successful and satisfying MESH Cafe at Shomrei is in the book. We have only three more weeks before we break for July and August. Our cooks are lined up but we still need a Captain for next week, 6/13. Please let me know if you are available.
Thank you,
Captain Lynne
