Milwaukee Jewish Fed

This year's #ILOJC is a big year! MKE sent the largest delegation of Lions to the conference, AND our very own Joan Lubar is a conference co-chair! In the photos below, she is speaking in front of 1,400 Lions at the opening plenary. #soproud #fedfriends #womenrepairtheworldpic.twitter.com/CGw4d1TN7t

This @Partnership2G trip would not have been possible without Jen Saber, Hannah Sattler, Amy Ferrante-Gollwitzer, Jonah Levenberg, Rebecca Guralnick, Bobbi Rector, Jill Weinshel, Mitch Nelles, Ashleigh Lund, Allison Haydon & Susie Rosengarten. Special thanks! #ILinMKEpic.twitter.com/bLykd7bohI

The @Partnership2G chefs want to thank the entire community, all the places that welcomed them so warmly, all the volunteers who helped and especially their host families, the Kazans and Blooms, for their wonderful hospitality. #ILinMKEpic.twitter.com/UiFb7cUOqR

Both @Partnership2G chefs said that their time in #MKE was eye-opening to many beautiful ways to be Jewish. “I feel like I have a new family, and I feel like I will be a better Jew in Israel. We (secular Israelis) are not less Jewish because we believe in our own way.” #ILinMKEpic.twitter.com/EuTLddgkDG

Food is heart. Food is not political or religious. Food opens a door to conversation which then can turn into relationships. Through this @Partnership2G delegation, another piece of #Israel is also in our hearts (and stomachs), linking our communities. #ILinMKEpic.twitter.com/oBXhZJ1JNn

We said farewell to the P2G Sovev Kinneret Partnership Chefs Delegation yesterday. Along with an extraordinary recipe for celery root soup from @BraiseLocalFood, chefs Gili Altman & Yehuda Niniyo are leaving with new friendships and a piece of Milwaukee in their hearts. #ILinMKEpic.twitter.com/6NSM3hB3qM

Our @Partnership2G chefs also were able to explore the local Milwaukee food scene! They visited @TheSpiceHouse, Wisconsin Cheese Mart, @BoelterStores showroom and @BraiseLocalFood to learn more about Milwaukee’s “flavor.” #ILinMKEpic.twitter.com/K3YyLVkun2

.@Partnership2G chefs created many mouthwatering dishes at Congregation Sinai Milwaukee’s “Taste of Israel” event. All the while, making friendships and connections that link Milwaukee and Israel at a deep and relational level. #ILinMKEpic.twitter.com/XzGTezn5xa

In the last two days, Chef Gili Altman and Chef Yehuda Niniyo competed in the Shakshuka Shakedown (Yehuda was crowned the Shakshuka King!) at Congregation Beth Israel Ner Tamid. #ILinMKpic.twitter.com/CLrq7RVcSg

Learning about #Israel is delicious! Our @Partnership2G Sovev Kinneret Chefs Delegation have shared Israel with our Milwaukee Jewish community with one delectable dish after the other. #ILinMKEpic.twitter.com/fEcthCwRfM

All hail the #Shakshuka King! @Partnership2G Chef Yehuda Niniyo was crowned the Shakshuka King last night at the Shakshuka Shakedown, a delicious and fun event! Thank you chefs Gili Altman and Yehuda Niniyo for sharing Israel with us through food and friendship. #ILinMKEpic.twitter.com/88GynfLat6

Our @Partnership2G can chefs also learned more about Milwaukee by touring the @JewishMuseumMKE and the @hdmuseum this week.pic.twitter.com/dxr8vcGt11

They shared sachlab and chocolate rice krispie dessert with residents at Ovation Communities and tahini cookies and chocolate date balls with students at @MilwaukeeJDS. #ILinMKEpic.twitter.com/pY9X0toBpY

The chefs made fish shwarma, fatoush salad, quinoa taboule salad, white bean hummus and dates with dark chocolate and caramel with congregants at Congregation Shalom Milwaukee. #ILinMKEpic.twitter.com/N24hwvHEnL

Food is a universal language, and Chef Gili Altman and Chef Yehuda Niniyo are communicating Israel to us by preparing and sharing delicious meals with community members. #ILinMKEpic.twitter.com/pe1s5DuVi9
