For one night, at least, kosher will once again star at the annual South Beach Wine & Food Festival, which just announced its 2017 lineup.
More of the Week’s Dish:
New Orleans chef Alon Shaya, whose namesake restaurant is a James Beard Award winner, will host “Burnt Ends,” a kosher barbecue dinner at Miami’s Chabad center downtown. Zak Stern of Miami’s kosher Zak the Baker will join the Glatt Kosher event.
The festival takes place February 22-26 at venues across Miami Beach. Tickets go on sale October 24. And yes, they do sell out that fast. More at the Miami Herald.

This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions. An era in which we need humans to report facts, conduct investigations that hold power to account, tell stories that matter and share honest discourse on all that divides us.
With no paywall or subscriptions, the Forward is entirely supported by readers like you. Every dollar you give this Passover is invested in the future of the Forward — and telling the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.
