Way back when the Temple was still standing, we used to make pilgrimages to Jerusalem three times a year: Sukkot (fall), Passover (spring), and Shavuot (summer). We would bring our fruit or grain to the temple to demonstrate our gratitude for that season’s harvest. And, importantly, we would all get to see each other.
At the Kitchen, we’re connecting to that same cycle by adding three banquets every year to our calendar (we also added an extra one for Rosh Hashanah, see above), to create special occasions to just be together, enjoy some good food, and appreciate all we’ve been given.
For our Festive Sukkot Banquet this year, we will host a brief shabbat service in the sukkah (think 20 minutes, very short teaching), followed by a delicious banquet. Chef Chris has been tasked with helping us savor the foods of the season and we hear there might also be excellent wine (because you will be bringing it, ha ha!).
Please dress in festive, fall attire (think dinner party), consider bringing sweaters, coats or wraps (we’ll be outside in our sukkah), and bring wine or your favorite drink!
