 SAN DIEGO—October is the month of Sukkot. In the Jewish tradition, it is so unreservedly joyful that it is commonly referred to in Jewish prayer and literature as Z'man Simchateinu, the Season of our Rejoicing. What better way to appreciate the gifts that Nature provides us than to come together to eat, drink, and be merry…(for tomorrow we may diet). Little wonder Sukkot is my favorite Jewish holiday!
In keeping with the celebration of Sukkot, The Prado at beautiful Balboa Park will host its 9th Annual Harvest Festival this Thursday October 15 from 5:00p – 9:00pm.
Join me to experience a celebration of food featuring The Prado's Executive Chef Jeff Thurston and Certified Master Pastry Chef Francesco Santoro. Enhancing the culinary offerings will be
