About the event
Chen, an Orthodox Jerusalemite, and Alon, a secular Israeli from a kibbutz in the Gaza Envelope, are a true reflection of Israel today, blending tradition, diversity, and creativity. Known for their participation in the Israeli version of Bake Off, the Korens will host the biggest live workshop of Israeli cooking in NYC at the JCC. Adults and families alike are invited to roll up their sleeves and create Israeli classics like Malabi, stuffed grape leaves, and more. Plus, enjoy a taste of the Shuk with vibrant flavors and stories that will transport you straight to Jerusalem. Don't miss this one-of-a-kind celebration of Independence, food, culture, and community!
