Join us on Zoom for this year’s Taste of Temple! The menu for Taste of Temple 2021 features a delicious pairing of events. A Tiny Taste of Temple cooks up fun for the whole family and Taste of Temple: B’tey’avon provides a sophisticated tasting for adult palates.
B’tey’avon means “bon appétit,” so Zoom in, nosh, and mingle with your fellow congregants at 6:00 PM on this Sunday, January 31. The evening will serve up fun with curated food boxes courtesy of Jacob and Sons with additional treats from Taste of Temple recurring favorites- Fire on the Mountain, Garbanzos, Kachka, Roons, Stone Soup, Yarden Winery, and Yalla, from the Seasame Collective.
