Small Bat-Mitzvah at a kosher restaurant
Submitted by: marsha on Oct 9th 2005
I will be planning a small Bat-Mitzvah in March-June 2006. My daughter loves Estihana in Manhattan (or Brooklyn). I have not contacted them yet. I would approximate 75 people.I would like a seperate area for the kids with a DJ/entertainer specific for that age group & maybe an artist as well. any suggestions?.(Funds are limited)

I looked into this for my daughter's bat mitzvah last year. Although I didn't end up using them (she wanted a dairy menu) I thought that Abigael's had a great set-up where they can accomodate crowds of almost any size. Their food is good too.

If you haven't booked a place yet we have a brand new boutique special event hall in Cedarhurst (5 Towns) called Occasions specializing in exactly the type of party you are looking for. The person in charge is Abe Fuchs and he can be reached at 516-374-9200. They have seperate rooms and only host one event at a time. The food is unbelievably creative and they customize every menu. I don't know f they have your date available as they are getting booked up quickly because it's brand new and everyone is raving about the place. Best of luck!

I also looked into Abigael's but didn't end up using it, although they were VERY nice and have a very good set-up, because my daughter wanted a dairy menu. We ended up having our bat mitzvah at Va Bene, which was just lovely. The food was incredible and they made a huge effort to find out what would make my daughter happy, including inventing her "dream" pasta dish to be one of the choices. They worked with us on every detail and I was extremely pleased with the results.

Two Gems
Submitted by: Michelle Sarah on Oct 7th 2005
Hey we discovered two dairy delights: Cafe K on Avenue K and Cafe Napoli on Coney Island Ave and M. Cafe K has no menus, kinda quirky cash only butthe food is great the waitresses were very helpful and the prices were very affordable, great fish and pasta! Napoli specializes in brick oven pizza and a very impressive selection of pastas, service was very good,around the same price range as Cafe K-both small, cozy, and warm. Try them, you wont be disappointed!

Chosen Garden
Submitted by: george on Sep 29th 2005
I order from Chosen Garden all the time and one time I called them at 3:03 and they didnt give me Lunch Special any more because it finishes at 3:00 . They took their time picking up the phone and no matter how much i asked them , they wouldnt give me Lunch Special any more. Thats not very Jewish like and they need to change that and have heart. Very dissapointed from them being soo cheap.

La Creperie
Submitted by: Anonymous on Sep 28th 2005
Not a great place to have a party. The staff was not exactly prepared to work with a large group. While they seemed very kind and willing to work with you, they made the event very stressful, asking much of you (the guest) during your part. Not acceptable when you are paying them to take care of you. The food was fine. But the service during the event made it not worth returning to.

Tremendous "Chilul Hashem" this customer ate entire dish minus a garnish and demanded a full refund because they didn't like the garnish. The customer was told what they were doing was dishonest and was fully credited.

Solo
Submitted by: joe on Sep 18th 2005
I had the short ribs eggroll which was good, they serve something similar in prime grill, for the main course I had the black agnus Steak which was good also, but nothing like WOW! The steaks are better in prime grill, it was $45 just for the steak and get this it din't come with side dishes justa few carrots. The choclate cake (hot) at the end was very good, but typical like all rest.

The bottom line the food was good but not great and at these prices, it needs to be great

Beautiful Restaurant. HORRIBLE FOOD- Bar Muda
Submitted by: Jack on Sep 18th 2005
Unless you are going solely for their "Mint Lemonaid" DONT BOTHER. I ordered "Cream of Garlic" soup. It had a very familiar taste and couldnt figure out what it was. When I was almost done my girlfriend tried it and was like "Is that techina?" im like thats what it is!

They served me hot techina and advertised it as "Cream of Garlic" I almost vomited on the spot.

Then came out my Penne pasta which was just as bad as the soup. I dont know how you can go wrong with pasta but hey, leave it up to Bar Muda. Tasteless pasta without all the toppings they advertise it to be.

My girl friend wasnt crazy about anything she had there either.

The place actually does happen to be nice. I just cant figure out why if you put so much into making the place state of the art at least invest in a good chef and a menu with a variety.

Will I go back again? Na.

I happen to really enjoy Bar Muda's food! I think the food is great! I enjoy the Bar Muda shake which is a milkshake with almonds and strawberries.
I also enjoy the fish dishes like the Chilean Sea Bass and the Grilled Filet of Denise. they have some very good pasta dishes as well. and i enjoy their sushi. I would recommend it highly.
I've been there multiple times over the past few months and i really like it there.

Had a luncheon for 15 people. They could not have been more accommodating. The service was good, patient and the food got better with each course. The fish was excellent. The Caesar salad had salmon that was a meal unto itself. The dessert crepes were decadent. It seemed you couldn't make a dent in the pasta entree, the plate was always full. Delicious and a place to put on your list of must go to.

Senator Joseph Lieberman, former Vice Presidential candidate, stopped in to dine at La Creperie last Thursday afternoon. When asked, "what brings you here?", he says "the word is out that this is the place to go to."
Sounds like he knows more than just politics.

Fabulous Party at La Creperie!
Submitted by: Jennifer on Aug 23rd 2005
La Creperie was the perfect location for my husband’s surprise birthday party on Saturday night! Rabbi Gross and Vicky worked with me on every detail to make sure the "drinks & desserts" party was exactly what I wanted. They hired a great bartender to mix the cocktails and drinks that I brought in, and prepared and a beautiful buffet of hors d’oeuvres. Our friends and family had a wonderful time and all agree that the highlight of the evening was watching their delicious crepes being specially made right in front of them! I can’t wait to host another party at La Creperie and recommend it as the best kosher restaurant in New York City to have a fun and delicious party!

Submitted by: BARBARA GLATTER on Aug 17th 2005
The othe day I went once again to Le Creperie. I was very pleased to see that they had a lunch menu. Everything was delicious. The dulce de leche dessert crepe was out of site. The only problem I could see was the calories. I go to restaurants alot so I am used to seeing everything. I judge restaurants and their cleanliness by their restrooms. The restroom here was immaculate. Keep up the excellent work!

Submitted by: Elinchik on Aug 17th 2005
The food was simply fabulous - we got four different crepes (2 regular, 2 dessert) and shared - my favorite was with smoked salmon and cream cheese. (their cream chees is original and delicious). However, I was sort of dissappointed by how close the tables are and how crowded it were (maybe b/c the restaurant got very popular, or because we went during the 9 days), but I had to rise 3 or 4 times to let people pass to their seats (we were sitting by the window). Definately a fun place to go with a small company, but not the best choice for a date.

The closest Jewish area from you is Skokie, IL- about an hour away. Ken's Diner is excellent restaurant where you can get deli. I guess you could drive there or see how much it will be to have something delivered. The restaurant's info is on this website.
