A delicious boxed kosher dinner prepared by caterer Cheryl Blonder, under the supervision of the Massachusetts Kosher Commission, is available for pickup or local delivery.
If you purchase a dinner ticket, your freshly prepared, ready-to-eat upscale dairy kosher meal will include tuna salad with lemon, carrots and celery; pasta salad with tomatoes, fresh basil, garlic and mozzarella, and garlic lemon vinaigrette; green salad with raspberries, goat cheese, pecans, and lemon honey vinaigrette; croissant; and chocolate mousse.
