Do you tend to give out sweet or savory mishloach manos?

Stuff Medjool dates with peanut butter, cover in melted chocolate, and freeze!

What was your most successful mishloach manos?
Since I don’t have a sweet tooth, I always do savory. I’ve done veggie platters and dip, and the all-time favorite was challah and homemade chummus served in Mason jars.

Restaurant rave
JZ Steakhouse in Hollywood, Florida, has been open for about a month. Their appetizers are superb in taste yet creative and not same-old. The service was fantastic, and the food really consistent. Definite thumbs-up. I recommend it highly.

Reader feedback
I enjoyed reading about Naomi Nachman’s travel tips! I just wanted to share a foolproof tip that we’ve used many times over. To keep frozen food from thawing, wrap it in newspaper! Apparently newspaper contains a sort of thermal substance. My family and I have traveled many hours by car and arrived with our food fully frozen. I never travel to Israel without our famous Chicago “Romanian” delights (hot dogs, deli, salamis, roasts, etc.) for my kids, and each package is wrapped once in newspaper and arrives frozen! (It obviously helps that it’s in cargo.) Thank you “Bubby” Harriet M. for this hack; it’s a game-changer for traveling!
