Tickets for a special evening of Palestinian food, culture, and storytelling with Izzeldin Bukhari, a Palestinian chef from Jerusalem, are now available. Izzeldin cooks and teaches about Palestinian cuisine, with a special focus on vegetarian and vegan dishes rooted in the Sufi tradition. The dinner will take place on August 8.
In Izzeldin's own words:
"Rich in nutritious ingredients and flavorful spices that are bound to the land, Palestinian food has made a deep impact on Mediterranean cuisine at large. We are home to dishes that reflect our ancestors' deep understanding of their soil, their ingredients, and their homeland.
Our aim is to keep that tradition alive, despite the relentless political and cultural pressures threatening its existence, and share that with the world."
Proceeds go to Palestinian charities and Izzeldin to continue his work.
