GREETINGS FROM PROVISIONS!


Our Underground Wine Tasting Dinner in September is sold out and we are looking forward to the next dinner in November - so please watch this space!

The High Holidays arrive early this year so don't wait until the last minute to order your meals for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.


Our menus include a yummy cold supper than can also be packed up as a lunch to take to the beach when you release your sins into the water.

We also have a special couscous with seven vegetables as seven is thought to be a lucky number and Rosh Hashanah is the seventh month of the Jewish Calendar.

Who knew?

Barbara Davilman and Ellis Weiner knew!  So they wrote The Big Jewish Book For Jews!  It is the perfect gift for a High Holiday Hostess.

And it is back to school this week, so let us
make your next PTA dinner or the school camp out Brunch!!!

UNDERGROUND WINE TASTING DINNERS
A brief history

First of all, thank you so much for your interest in the Underground Wine Tasting Dinner in September.
Sadly we are fully booked at this time.

These dinners started out in our garden oasis in Silver Lake as a way to spend time with our friends in the food and wine business.  They quickly grew to include friends of friends and our favorite clients.

We now do our dinners every other month in different private homes and we limit the number of guests to 24-30 people to give the evening a complete dinner party atmosphere.

We like to think the dinners are more than the location as it is the combination of space, wine and food that sets the overall ambiance of the evening.

You can go to a restaurant anytime - but we like to seat our guests with new and interesting people who share a love of art, food and wine.

We normally do not announce the location prior to booking tickets and we never publish the menu ahead of time.

We look forward to meeting you at another event.

For more information about our food and philosophy please check out our website.

Please look out for the next dinner in November! 

And if you know of a great house that would like to host one of our dinners, please contact us!
Modern Jews have become so assimilated they think Bar Kochba is a nightclub.  They've lost touch with cherished traditions that go far, far back, to 1954, and then to 4000 BCE.

It's time to relearn the old ways.  And The Big Jewish Book for Jews is here to help.  This hilarious compendium of traditional wisdom, recipes, and lore from the authors of the bestselling Yiddish with Dick and Jane offers invaluable instruction on everything from how to sacrifice a lamb unto the Lord to how to reject the first table you're shown at a restaurant.

So come.  Learn how to deflect a compliment, build an ark, and appreciate pickles.

Be all the Jew you can be.


If you have an idea for an event or need help planning your next dinner party we are here to help.
