This year’s Nosh Fest is expected to double in attendance following the popularity of the festival hosted by Temple Beth Emet in 2009.
“Nosh,” meaning to taste, is the very premise of Nosh Fest, South Florida’s Jewish Food Festival. This year’s Nosh Fest, November 21 from 10 am – 3 pm, is expected to grow substantially. Created last December by leaders of Temple Beth Emet in Cooper City, FL, this festival aims to benefit local food banks, namely Feeding South Florida, Jewish Family Service of Broward County and We Care Food Pantry, during the busy holiday season. Festival attendees “pay” for their admission with canned food items and thereafter enjoy nosh-sized samples of Jewish Cuisine at reasonable prices.
“This year will be a bigger, more exciting and fun-filled event,” says Stuart Silver, Chair of Nosh Fest II. “There will be more of everything – cooking demonstrations and competitions, children’s activities, arts and crafts, entertainment, and of course, delicious Jewish Cuisine.”
Attendees, food aficionados, and everyone in between will be able to purchase food tickets at the festival to enjoy sample-sized portions of Israeli Falafel, Knish, Ruggulah, and much more. Visit www.NoshFest.org or call (954) 680-1882 for more information, competition applications, and to purchase discounted food tickets.
Nosh Fest was created by leaders at Temple Beth Emet as a way to gather the community for a taste of Jewish Style Cuisine while offering support to Jews and non-Jews who were suffering as a result of difficult economic times before Chanukah and Christmas.
