Let’s talk holiday traditions!
My dad’s parents lived in Fort Lauderdale for around 30 years, and we often went to visit at Christmas.
As most of you know, there are not a lot of dining out options for Jewish folks around Christmas because everyone understandably wants to be with family.
One beloved tradition for us was going to in Ft. Lauderdale. We would wait over an house, and my Grandma and Grandpa would eat nasty things like liver, tongue and corned beef.
Fast forward about 40 years, when I found out that a new Wolfies was opening in Sarasota.
I stocked up on noshes for the next two days: a spinach knish, whitefish salad, a pumpernickel bagel, half sour pickles, a cinnamon babka slice and a diet cherry soda.
It made me smile for so many reasons, and it also made me miss my grandparents terribly.
I will be back, hopefully with friends and family, when I am down for the winter.
What is or was one of your favorite family restaurants to visit?
