[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you mean more like Middle Eastern/Israeli food than specifically Jewish food, which usually really means Ashkenazi Jewish food (matzoh ball soup, kugel, gefilte fish, etc.). [/quote]

[b]What an Ashkenormative response[/b]. Jewish food is a wide universe of food, including amazing Middle Eastern and North African food. This is not a great area, but we like:

1. Shouk; 
2. Little Sesame; 
3. Taim; 
4. Al Ha'esh (Moti)
5. Max's (falafel only)
6.  Amsterdam Falafelshop
7. Zaytina

Oy. Not everything has to be a slight. [/quote]

Seriously. All I meant is that when folks say “Jewish food,” they’re typically talking about “Jewish deli” food, which essentially amounts to Ashkenazi Jewish food. That’s ALL I was saying. [/quote]

Huh? Not sure who means that. Do you mean American Jews? Because for Israeli Jews, that’s definitely not the case.[/quote]

No. That food isn’t exactly American. [/quote]
