Northwest Premiere!
DOUBLE BILL WITH MENDEL, BEGINNING AT 8:30 PM, WENESDAY, MARCH 17, PACIFIC PLACE

Can traditional Jewish cuisine ever claim its place within the world of haute cuisine? Does it need a modern day Viking to take it there? When Danish born non-Jewish chef Henrik Iversen becomes head chef at the Jerusalem Hyatt, he champions the rustic delights of chopped liver, matzo ball soup and cholent but with his own ‘haymishe’ twist!
