Man-o-man, for years I thought the only place to get a good Kosher beef frank was the ballpark (I obviously don’t go to grocery store often). But on Sunday, I had the experience of a lifetime — an entire event featuring some of my favorite foods including said franks, corned beef on rye and potato cakes. Where can one find such a fabulous array smorgisboard-worthy grub, you ask? Well, the Mount Sinai Yiddish Food Festival, of course.
It was an enriching experience with a touch of culture unlike any other I’ve experienced in my two decades of Wyoming living. This was my second trip to the city’s go-to synagogue. Just like the first, I was impressed with the people, atmosphere, and obviously, food. Though I didn’t actually eat, I wanted to. Unfortunately, my steady diet of club crackers and ramen noodles preceded the event. Thus, my appetite was as absent as me in a classroom during my schoolboy years. Foolish, foolish me.
In the future, I will be sure to load up on a pocket full of shekels in order to partake in the feast of a lifetime. As we speak, I’m eating a Hebrew National Frank. Mmm, mmm good (sorry Campbell’s Soup Co., but this dog is the real deal).
