Is there a chef in the house?

Nothing fishy about this

My daughter’s boyfriend is studying at the Tadmor School of Cooking in Tel Aviv.

Less than a year out of his army service, he’s pursuing his love of cooking and having a great time doing it. Now, he’s a very nice guy, but what really endears him to me is that whenever he stays over when she’s on a break from the army for a day or two, he takes over the kitchen to prepare feasts for all of us based on the recipes he’s learning in his classes.

The kitchen looks like a hurricane ripped through it, as he never just prepares one dish – it’s always something like lightly breaded Salmon filets with sauce of dried tomatoes, basillicum and onions, with a side of thyme-spiced, broiled sweet potatoes. The aromas are intense, and the flavors more than meet the expectations.

Israel’s developed some world class chefs in the last few years, and I think we may have another one in the works. I’ll continue to be his guinea pig, so to speak, any time.

    2. Hey Dave,
    Is the Tadmor School kosher? Merav also wants to study cooking.

    3. And unless it’s moved, the Tadmor School is located in Herzlia Pituach, not Tel Aviv (yet).
